Welcome 2025

We jumped into 2025 both feet first with a number of projects for clients. At the end of last year we completed the cutting and fitting for a 22" Dragonfly shade. The first order of business for the new year was to foil this shade.

After foiling the shade, Irwin Terry has been working on the soldering for the shade.

Bill Campbell moved on to the layout of an 18" Calamondin Orange Tree lamp. 

Bill designed this lamp in 2014. With just under 2050 individual pieces of glass, this shade has more pieces than any other lamp we offer.

Every shade is created by hand, one piece at a time. Laying out and cutting the first piece for a new shade is always exciting. Bill began with the tiny flower petal pieces.
This past week we also prepared waxes for our first trip to the foundry this year. We will be picking up unfinished bronze castings when we drop off these waxes.

If the first two weeks are any indication, 2025 is going to be a very busy year!
