The Ultimate Glass Lovers Book
Discover the rich history of exquisite glass art lamps that are far rarer than Tiffany's. Be inspired by examples in history from some of America's extraordinary glass studios. This landmark volume looks beyond Tiffany Studios to give our lesser known American Glass Studios the respect and admiration they deserve. These elaborate lamps will delight both the art and antique lover. Paul Crist of Odyssey Lamps and Paul Crist Studios has created this book based on more than ten years of research. It is packed with not only gorgeous photography but comprehensive historical information. Stunning in its depth and detail, Mosaic Shades Vol. II contains over 650 color illustrations of lamps that are rarely seen today, including hundreds of large images of portables and hanging lamps. Includes detailed historical information on the studios, with more than 700 additional archival and stylistic illustrations. A keepsake for generations, Mosaic Shades II features almost 1400 pictures, and is 352 pages.
