Lamps and Suncatchers
My Original Big Boy Lamp is 21 inch Diameter & 32 inches high. It now has a happy home in Virginia with my grand daughter Lucy.
Lamp on left was made for the Antique Wood Base that is worth more than the lamp.
The lamp below was made from two one gallon jugs. The top is from two straight sections, you can see the line where the two meet. Glass pieces are cemented on them to hold them together
The bottom section is made from a bottom and a top section that remained after the straight part was cut out of the jug. Just an idea I had after I bought a bottle cutter. It is lighted top and bottom.
The lamp below is from a pattern book and is a TiffanyTulip Lamp replica with 540 pieces of glass. I put this project aside due to bad section fit of pattern. After three years I bought a grinder and finished the lamp. The solid brass antique base was found by our son Raymond on his property on Paper Mill Road near Potstown, Pa.
This next lamp was made from a pattern supplied by Matt Palma, Ann's Cousin deceased. Matt was instrumental in my starting in stained glass. Matt was talented and could do or build anything. This lamp sits on my desk. The base is antique. Pull chanes dated 1911.
