Fairy Lamp Club
This incredible site is a stunning showcase for Victorian and contemporary fairy lamps, a style of lamp with a glass cup and dome designed by Samuel L. Clarke in England in the 1880s. In addition to a detailed history of Clark's designs, the site provides reference information including catalogs, price lists, advertisements, lights, details on Fenton Fairy Lights from the 1950s, and lamp design numbers. And of course, a great collection of high resolution photos of the lamps themselves. A gem of a site.
