This 52” stained glass ceiling fan comes in three finishes: spice, teal, and violet. They all boast hypnotizing designs and excellent attention to detail. This fan comes with three speed settings, a dimmable light, and reversible blades.
Designer Advice:
Look for the right ceiling fan size in relation to your room. If it’s around 8’ high, it’s wiser to stick to a low-profile fan rather than a downrod. A wingspan of around 30” is a good option in small rooms (less than 50 sq. ft.). 36” is more suitable for 75 sq. ft., 42” for 100, 52” for 200-300, and 56” for particularly large settings.

This fan’s lighting fixture consists of 334 glass cuts soldered together through Tiffany’s iconic copper foil method. The blades showcase a mahogany finish on one side and black on the other, so you can choose the best match for your palette and decor.
Designer Advice:
Most stained glass ceiling fans involve more than one color. However, to keep a cohesive feel in your room, try and look for a design that includes at least one of your palette’s main hues. In most cases, this will be a colorful accent, such as the shade of your sofa cushions or vases.

This Tiffany model pairs up some early 20th-century charm with contemporary perks. It displays a teal and light-blue body that’s perfect for cold palettes. The five blades match the antique bronze finish of the hanging bracket and rod.
Designer Advice:
Traditional stained glass ceiling fan globes with pull chains are still an extremely popular option. In some cases, though, it might be worth investing in a model with a remote control. For example, if you have kids who might be tempted to climb up a chair to reach it, or if some members of your family are fairly short. Plus, it’s just nice to not have to get up whenever you wish to change its speed!

The incredible thing about stained glass ceiling fan light shades is that they feature eye-popping aesthetics while providing a vital functionality. It's one of the reasons why these types of ceiling fan light shades are growing in popularity. Since you are reading this article, you are probably thinking of getting one for your home.
Before you do that, here are a few essential factors that you need to consider:
How to measure for a ceiling fan light shade?
When purchasing stained glass ceiling fan light shades, your first task is to do a bit of measuring. The most important thing is to measure the height of the ceiling. Although the width of the room is not as important, it doesn't mean you can ignore it. You don't want a ceiling fan light shade that is too wide for the room.
Once you have the height of the ceiling, you can then find the appropriate fan with the stained glass light shade that you love. Your choices are typically categorized into flush mount, standard, extended downrod, and sloped.
Flush mount is a low-profile type of fan with a small-sized light shade. Hence, it's recommended if the ceiling's height is less than eight feet.
If the height of the ceiling is between eight to ten feet, then a standard is advisable.
An extended downrod means that there's an "extended pole" between the fan and the ceiling. Hence, this type of fan with stained glass light shade is advisable if the ceiling is more than ten feet.
Sloped is primary used if the ceiling slants at an angle of more than 32 degrees.
Your primary concern here is the color. To choose the right color, it's best that you know the style of the room (e.g. contemporary, modern, minimalistic, Scandinavian, traditional, coastal). Once you know the style, dig deeper and determine the dominantly used colors for the room's theme. For example, Scandinavian styles typically make use of white and shades of gray.
From then on, it's just a matter of finding the right stained glass colors that match the style of the room. Don't make the mistake of falling in love with a certain stained glass ceiling fan light shade without relating it to the rest of the room. If done right, this piece of home accessory can unify the theme of the room. Choose the wrong one, and it can look awkward and out of place.
If you will purchase a stained glass light shade that already comes with a ceiling fan, then you also need to know what to look for in such an appliance. Where you are going to place the fan will affect your choices. Ceiling fans are often rated in terms of Dry, Damp, and Wet.
- If you are going to place the ceiling fan in a dry location (e.g. living room, bedroom), then a dry-rate lamp is what you are looking for.
- Damp-rated ceiling fans are designed for areas with moisture, but not in direct contact with water (e.g. laundry rooms, bathrooms, kitchen).
- If you are planning to place the fan in a room where it's likely to be in contact with water (e.g. outdoors), then what you are looking for is a wet-rated ceiling fan.
