A nice unexpected find while researching Tiffany glass. |
| 11/17/2009 8:17:15 PM |
| I have a stained glass shade hanging in my kitchen. Underneath this stained glass shade is a large round glass globe containing the light bulb. When I bought my home I was informed by the then owners this stained glass kitchen shade was a true piece of Tiffany glass. While I had a rudimentary knowledge of Tiffany glass I really did not give this statement by the previous... Read More |

Decorative Glass Cabinet for DVDs and CDs Helps Organize Them |
| 11/9/2009 2:58:04 PM |
 Today I found this cabinet made with decorative glass that's been tempered for safety and long life. The doors are sliding and it is 49" high, 32" wide, and 9.5" deep. The beauty of this cabinet is that it uses decorative glass so that the contents can be seen without sliding the doors open. It weighs 77 pounds so it's solidly built. The beauty of this unit...

 I have many different and exquisite decorative glass pieces that are carefully placed throughout the interior of my house. My wife is the one that has really gotten me into the charm and decadence of using decorative glass to make the house livelier. At first she would just bring home a decorative glass piece or two, here and there. But then as they started to really add... Read More

The Clock with Decorative Glass |
| 11/4/2009 5:32:59 PM |
My entire life I have wanted a Grandfather Clock. It all started when I fell in love with my Aunt's Grandfather Clock at the ripe old age of eight-years-old. Aunt Doris loved antiques, and she had an old, very tall, exquisite Grandfather Clock in her living room. It made wonderful sounds on the hour, and I could not keep my hands off it. I vowed when I grew up, I too... Read More |
