I know this says vinyl, not tiffany. However, all the advertising I received from Bradford showed gorgeous pictures of this item. It really looked like a beautiful tiffany item. I have ordered a lot of stuff from Bradford and always been pleased. I was SO impressed with the look and sound of this item, I ordered 3 one for me, and 2 for gifts.
When I opened the first one, I was mortified. I would be totally embarrassed to give this as a gift. It reminded me of little plastic lamps I made and sold for $2 when I was in Jr Achievement in 7th grade. It was so awful that I wouldn't even keep one for myself. It is very chinsey and cheap looking and feeling. I returned all 3.
Sorry Bradford. I really love most of your stuff but this was a big fat MISS !

This cute little guy can be the warm center of a room when he is turned on. I will say that this is an extremely unique gift and I was very happy to surprise my wife with this gift. She also enjoys it but note that the picture looks better than the actual item. The face on our Pug, especially one eye, is a little lopsided...a little off but not too bad (I do wish the eyes were a bit more buggy like a real Pug's eyes). The Pug is made out of a light vinyl; you'll definitely want to keep it away from the cat's paws, other dog's nails and teeth, and out of the children's fingernails as it can be easily scratched.

Honest reviews on "Precious Pug" Louis Comfort Tiffany-Style Vinyl Lamp
I remember reading another review saying that this "Vinyl Lamp by The Bradford Exchange" was a little below Bradford Exchange standards. I unfortunately agree. This pug is cute from a distance. I have had to relegate it to the window sill in the hallway visible from but several feet from my usual chair in the living room. I have at least one other vinyl Tiffany-style animal lamp a very cute elephant with a butterfly on the end of his trunk. It actually has "vinyl" glass pieces put together in the traditional Tiffany style and is very nice looking. This pug is molded plastic with the Tiffany-style lines just painted on. Give me a break! And it actually came with a "certificate of authenticity" from the Bradford Exchange. Give me another break!! The Bradford Exchange is going to get a very bad reputation if they keep selling this type of product, especially for the price $59.99 plus $8.99 shipping!! I'm not sending it back but I'll never buy this type of Tiffany-style lamp again.
