Lamp of the Week: 16″ Daffodil
This bright, sunny 16″ Daffodil shade has a carefree feel. Without decorative border rows, the flowers appear to be growing in a field rather than in a formal garden. For this shade, we chose a sunny yellow background glass that deepens to an amber/green mix on the lower portion of the shade. The fresh green…
Showroom Lamps
For the past few months, we have been working nonstop on commissioned lamps and have not had time to create new showroom pieces. Because of this, our selection of showroom lamps has recently dwindled down to just a couple of stained glass pieces. To enhance the selection of showroom examples, we have brought in a…
Lamp of the Week: 25″ Roman
The 25″ Roman shade is a generously proportioned lamp with an unusual flaring “helmet” shape. This piece was created from mottled glass that starts with a rich amber at the top and moves into deep orange on the lower half of the shade. Accents of yellow and yellow/green are found in the decorative border rows….
14″ Geranium Pair
This matched set of 14″ Geranium shades was commissioned by a West Coast client. Red flowers dot the upper half of the shade, while mottled green leaves play against a light fracture/streamer background. Amber/orange border rows tinged with green give the pieces definition.

The generously proportioned 28″ Wisteria makes an impressive floor lamp or chandelier fixture. For this shade we used a mix of blue, lavender and white blossoms intermingled with fresh green foliage. The mottled glass gives the flowers a sun dappled appearance, while the irregular lower border and lobed shape creates a naturalistic look. Shown on…

We are preparing waxes to take to our foundry, and are working on the assembly and patina of bronze pieces we…

With snowstorms traveling through Minnesota on almost a daily basis, it is nice to be reminded that spring will be with us shortly…well, by June at any rate! The 16″ Tulip shade reminds us that warm sunny days are coming. The flowers for this shade were created in a variety of red tones, some streaked…
16″ Fish
Cold winter nights make us long for the lazy days of summer, and the 16″ Fish shade is a welcome reprieve from snow and cold outside. The 16″ Fish shade is one of the more unusual and rare Tiffany shade designs (fewer than five original examples are known to exist). Five Koi fish dance rhythmically…
