                                    About Meyda Lighting 


Meyda Lighting is a Meyda Tiffany Company, the nation's oldest and leading manufacturer and designer of Tiffany style stained glass lamps and decorative lighting. Although founded in 1974 by Meyer Cohen as a hobby for his wife Ida, the firm's roots actually date back to the early 1900s, supplying the creator of Tiffany Lamps, Louis Comfort Tiffany, and Tiffany Studios with their famous high quality lighting products.  

More than a decade ago, Meyda acquired Quality Bent Glass Company which created original lighting fixtures, including the famous Coca-Cola chandeliers, and supplied them to Tiffany Studios in New York City, during the turn-of-the-century. Meyda utilizes QBG's original tools, molds and techniques to create lighting products today.

In the mid-1990s, Meyda purchased Mecco Art, a metal art studio, and utilizes its equipment and manufacturing techniques to produce the Old Forge line of custom crafted steel sculptured lighting and decor. The line, which features original, natural and wildlife themes, includes lamps, chandeliers, figurines, candle holders, towel racks, bookends, switch plates, coat racks, napkin holders, log holders, fireplace screens, and other home accents.

Today Meyda is still a family-run business, with Meyer and Ida's son, Robert, at the helm. With dealers across the U.S. and Canada, Meyda offers an extensive line of over 50,000 customizable lighting options featuring thousands of styles-- from accent pieces to masterpieces. Many of Meyda's lighting designs were inspired by the works of Louis Comfort Tiffany,  Dirk Van Erp, Gustav Stickley, Philip Julius Handel, Pairpoint and Duffner & Kimberly Studios, Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Some have been handcrafted of copper foil and reverse-painted art glass, porcelain, jade stone, mica and other fine mediums. Others were influenced by popular art movements: Arts and Crafts, Prairie, Lodge, Mission, Bungalow, Victorian, Nouveau, Gothic, Southwest and Deco.

The firm's extensive line includes table and floor lamps, ceiling pendants, flush and semi-flush mounted ceiling fixtures, chandeliers, wall sconces, windows, fireplace screens, furniture, and more. In addition, Meyda Lighting offers Extensive Custom Capabilities to create the custom lamp, fixture, window or accessory of your dreams.  With one of the industry's most extensive new product development programs, Meyda creates scores of new designs weekly.
