In the Black-Eyed Susan, the flowers are brilliant orange and taper off to pale yellow. Some are shown head-on, others in a side view. The foliage is a dark green which contrasts with the lighter green of the background.

The lamp base in the illustration is not now available. A 14 or 15 inch base is suggested, which you can choose from our catalog Section M.

Tiffany Studio's Black Eyed Susan Lamp Shade Reproduction Package, containing uncut sheets of tiffany reproduction glass, the patterns, and 16" diameter lamp shade form.

The people who make our beveled glass have decided to discontinue the manufacture of the 1-1/4" wide series. They have offered no rationale for this unfortunate decision, but we can assume that the fractional width is too confusing. But in any event, we will follow along. They will not appear in our next catalog. But we have a good supply of certain of the widths, and now offer them for sale at an advantageous (to you) price.

A great help for the craftsman who does etching on glass. The wide variety of subject matter offered here is almost sure to contain some designs suitable for your next etching project.

Help with intricate cuts.

How many times have you wanted to do a stained glass project but didn't start because it seemed too complicated and time consuming? Here is a quick way to get into a project and get it done with time to spare. Fun packs have everything you need to complete the project. The primary project piece, the pattern and the glass (in uncut sheets). You use your own tools, solder and foil of course, but there is nothing else to buy.

This stained glass panel is perfect for a den or recreation room.

These charming characters have just returned from the annual Teddy Bear's Picnic. Having imbibed certain libations, and enormous helpings of deviled eggs, ham sandwiches, tuna fish salad, dill pickles, chips and dips, apples, pears, grapes and chocolate cream pie, they have collapsed into a somnolent heap. The only sounds emanating from this contented pile is very heavy breathing and an occasional reverberating burp.

You will enjoy making this panel for display in your home, interrupting your work only to take an occasional snack of deviled eggs, etc.

PATTERN NUMBER 2064, 2065, AND 2066 ARE ALL PART OF ONE SCENE, BUT THEY MUST HAVE AT LEAST A 4" SPACE BETWEEN THEM.

This standard Tulip Lampshade package contains glass from Spectrum Glass Company and from Wissmach Glass Company. Also included are the color coded pattern and the 16" styrene lamp form upon which to build the shade.

FROM THE NAMELESS GLASS COMPANY

We receive shipments of bevel clusters from time to time through the auspices of our roving emissary, Bernie (of the wide suspenders and high top shoes). The Nameless Glass Company in the Lesser Antipodes makes these bevels in the off-shift periods, just to use up the glass and to keep the machinery busy. The name of this glass company shall remain nameless.

These bevel clusters are bulk packed, which saves money both in packaging and shipping. We will send them to you packed separately in sets. The prices are very reasonable, and we have a fairly good supply although it is dwindling rapidly. If you will need clusters soon, now is the time to order.

Drill holes in glass! These carbide tips will fit into an ordinary hand brace and drill hundreds of holes in glass, bottles, vases, and jewelry store windows. With our drills you can convert wine bottles into lamps, lamps into chandeliers, and chamber-pots into ceremonial colanders. Instructions for using the drills are included.

This beautiful project was featured in our catalogs from 1973 through 1978, but we had to withdraw it from sale because of the lack of a reliable supply of the glass required to build it. We now have ample glass of the right kind to enable you to embark upon and complete this impressive undertaking and create a creditable look-alike to the original, a Tiffany Studios production. We developed this project by studying the Tiffany Studios Grape Trellis Shade shown in eight-color process photography on page #254 of the book "The Lamps of Tiffany" by Dr. Egon Neustadt. The lampshade that was built from this set of drawings and instructions in 1973 is displayed in our building at the present time. It is 26 inches in diameter, and consists of more than 900 pieces of glass and took a craftsman more than 140 hours to build. SPECIAL EFFECTS We achieved the authentic coloration by "plating" the glass, which means using two or more layers of glass to achieve the correct shade. The gradual lightening of the evening sky from the bottom of the shade to the top is done by using a pink opalescent over varying shades of purple or blue. The same method is used to depict varying ripeness in the grapes, and the ages of the leaves. In places where the vine or leaves cross over the trellis, the glass is raised to give a third dimension, which adds considerably to the authenticity of the depiction. CONTENTS OF THE PACKAGE The patterns occupy several sheets of pattern paper, because all of the eight panels are different. Detailed instructions are given for constructing a cardboard form from materials not included in the package. The Reproduction Package does contain all of the materials which will actually make up the shade. These materials consist of uncut sheets of various glasses in quantities sufficient (including a generous allowance for waste) for an experienced craftsperson to cut all of the pieces required for the shade.

Our package also includes a deluxe hardware package for hanging and wiring the lamp. In addition, we furnish the copper foil and black patina required.

No stained or leaded glass work is really complete without cementing. It fills in all the spaces between the glass and the lead cames, and make the panel strong and waterproof.

For those of you who don't want the hassle of mixing your own cement, this Inland Cement System saves you the time and the mess. You'll just need to stir it up, because it will separate. It starts out a bit runny, so you might want to have some whiting handy to thicken it, much like you'd thicken runny cake batter, only instead of being creamy and sweet, this stuff is most definitely not edible.

It's got a relatively short shelf life (a few months), so don't expect it to last as long as your own mix (which can be easily reconsitituted with turpentine if it begins to dry up). But it works well, and might be exactly the product for you. We've tested it in our Basic Lead Class, and it got rave reviews.

Inland Cement System has a suspension agent that allows the cured cement to breath with changes in the weather, so the window remains solid and stable.

OK, we just have one Kokomo selection online, but we'll have more someday, you just wait.

Price is per pound.

The perfect solution to the problem of what to do when you want to hang a small sun catcher or other small stained glass piece onto the refrigerator. Rather than drive a nail into the refrigerator and having all the cold air come out, why not stick the sun catcher up there with a magnet. Why not indeed!? This magnetic material consists of a powdered steel substance combined with something else which allows it to be flexible, and also allows you to cut it with a scissors. Thus, you can use as much or as little as you wish, and stick it to the backside of the piece you want to hang up. Width is 1/2". Sold by the foot or in larger rolls.

Depending upon the size, shape and location of your Adam's Apple, you may or many not find it comfortable to wear a neck ring.

Depending upon the size, shape and location of your lower calf, you may prefer to wear one as a clip to prevent your pant leg from becoming entangled in your bicycle chain.

In either event, a neck ring's use is intended to be a decorative device from which to hang one or more pendants.

Neck rings require no body piercing.

Diameter of ring, 4-7/8". Steel, nickel-plated.

This has a subtle granite-like surface texture and some transparent, or "crystal", glass mixed in, so it catches the light beautifully.

. I then plug in my iron and wait for it to heat up. I test it from time to time until it is hot enough to melt a piece of solder being held against the tip. When this temperature has been reached, I unwind about 6 inches of solder from the roll and, holding the iron in one hand and the solder in the other, touch them together about 1/4" above the first joint I wish to solder. I allow a bit of solder to melt onto the tip, and then transfer the melted solder onto the joint rapidly, and just as rapidly, remove the iron from the joint. The tip of the iron should stay on the surface of the lead just long enough to heat the lead and transfer the solder to it. At 800-1000 degrees, it doesn't take long to heat a piece of small lead came, so don't dally. After a few sessions you will notice that a rhythm develops, and soldering will become easy.



I Unplug the iron. and remove the nails holding the project in position. I then wipe off the excess flux with a piece of paper towel, turn the project over and apply flux onto the unsoldered side. (There is no need to hold the project in place with nails.) I proceed as before, and solder the second side.

This series is well-suited for window panels. The beveled clusters may be framed out into circles, ovals, squares or rectangles. Many are available with an optional center motif. Each component of the beveled cluster is 3/16" transparent glass, ground and polished to a uniform 1/2" bevel. Dimensions indicate those of the assembled bevel clusters that use lead came. Compensation will be necessary if copper foil is used.

Allow 2-3 weeks for delivery of all bevel clusters on this page.

Chanty (short for Chanticleer) is Cock of the Roost in Hanover, Massachusetts.

Chanty spent all of his adult summers to date entertaining the Boston chickens who come down to the South Shore for a relaxing vacation.

Chanty is obviously meditating upon this portion of his youth. He probably wonders what his life would have been like if he had chosen some other field of endeavor. All of us may have had this feeling at one time or another.

Here he is clearing his throat to announce his reluctant retirement from The Service. He has had some thoughts of becoming a stand-in for the rooster who used to announce the Pathe' Newsreels in the movie theaters of yore. His agent is looking into this possibility.

Take advantage of this rare opportunity to make these three heirloom lamp shades which are certain to increase in value as the years go by. We studied the photographs in Dr. Egon Neustsadt's book The Lamps of Tiffany, using a magnifying projector to assure that the patterns are accurate in every detail. These lamp shades are among the all-time favorites of Tiffany collectors.

You can order the three package collection at a generous saving over the regular prices if ordered separately. The standard glass packages are uncut sheets of glass, identified with the code shown on the pattern.

Deluxe reproduction packages. For our customers who consider that their time is of vastly greater value than the cost of the standard reproduction package, we offer the deluxe package, which is made up of the Youghiogheny Tiffany Reproduction glass palette. They realize that the time required to painstakingly create these masterpieces calls for the most accurate glass selections available.

The lamp shade form. All three of these lamp shades can be built upon the 16" diameter lamp shade form. This styrene form is very hard. It resists the heat from the soldering iron, and can be used again and again. You can make as many lamp shades as you care to on this form. The lamp form is furnished with completely illustrated step-by-step instructions for its use. You can also buy blank pattern sets so you can design your own lamp shades.

Each combination package consists of three patterns, three glass packages, and the styrene lamp shade form.

Order combination offer #0711 for the standard package.

Order combination offer #0712 for the deluxe package.
