  1. Thank you PhilDavidAlexanderMorris. I haven't either so it was a good day that it followed me home. ;o) As much as I love to be able to discover attribution for some of my shades, I love the mysteries...
  2. Sorry can't help with the manufacturer. It is lovely! Great find. Thank you for sharing it with us. Sincerely, Lisa
  3. These were readily available in North America in the 1990s. The quality was very inconsistent. Sincerely, Lisa
  4. It is lovely! Thank you for sharing it with us. Sincerely, Lisa
  5. Thank you! I really appreciate your having taken the time to shoot the fitter and sharing it with me. Sincerely, Lisa
  6. Thank you for sharing this how to. I can't wait to try it. I have not been pleased with my attempts. Perhaps the black will make a difference. It will be fun to try. Sincerely, Lisa
  7. Thank you! What a wonderful thread. You really nailed the idea of collecting and all that it brings to our lives. The wonderful people, the endless knowledge, the beautiful things and the joy, and the...
  8. It should work even in Word. If you highlight the image and right mouse that should get it done. I'll try it myself now just in case I am wrong yet again. :O) Sincerely, Lisa
  9. Thank you Inky. What amazing colours. Thank you for sharing these. Sincerely, Lisa
  10. And added bonus, no one can pinch the frog. :O) Thank you for sharing. It is lovely to see things that are different as well as those that are familiar. Sincerely, Lisa
  11. Love this one too! They really are lovely. I too am looking for tops. The harder we work the luckier we get. :O) One day. Sincerely, Lisa
  12. You got me! I guess I should have googled the lyric. :O) If you must I guess you will keep on with your moggy. I love my wild birds and I have feeders and birdbaths and the pond to bring them here and...
  13. Ah yes but Dog people have among others, Elvis. :O)
  14. Dear Greatsnowyowl and any other misguided souls who live with cats. :O)))))))))))))) I have a wonderful idea for you. I know loads of lovely dogs who need good loving homes. How about a wonde...
  15. I would never leave my office. ;o) Thank you for sharing you have a wonderful collection. sincerely, lisa
  16. Yum! Thank you for sharing these with us. I had never noticed this shape before. It is truly delightful.
  17. Two little things that might be of use. Firstly Snuff boxes were made to be air tight. So they close very well and still present after all these years with a snug closure. They hinges are also very we...
  18. Love the silver one. The newer ones just don't come close do they? Not that I know a single thing about these. I just love the look of the early one.
  19. Oh I hope you find a place of honour for the deco case. It is soo perfect for your deco glass. And the boys would be so sad to loose their perfect perch too. ;o)
  20. Oh my goodness. I just love the perfect case, complete with fabulous lamp on top!! And again what a perfect display in both cases. I am positively green. If I could display my collection even half as ...
  21. How beautiful! You really do have an amazing eye and such restraint. That is the part I envy the most. The ability to show those things that you have on display properly by not having everything out i...
  22. What a treasure! Please tell me you don't own huge puppies, have huge parties, or if you do that you will put this awsome treasure away safely. ;o) Enjoy!
  23. You often offer and provoke some of the best reading of the day. Thank you. May I ask you to tell me more about a gadget scar, please? Sincerely, Lisa
  24. Beautiful the quality is really fine. There is a lovely collection in London I saw it last in 2003 I believe it is at Sommerset house but I will check. It is really worth a visit.
  25. What a beautiful panel lamp. I have seen a lot of these with paneled bases and shades to match. I can't think of one however that compared to this lamp. The pattern and colours ..... Yum! I w...
  26. This may be the same as the green Kralik that Mac shows in his posting. That one has it's collar and I will know what I am seeing when I find one for me. :O) Does anyone have an image of the other Kr...
  27. Lovely. Thank you Mac. I can't remember anymore where I purchased it but it must have been in a package with shades or lamp parts. I am thinking perhaps at Flamborough. I used to love picking that sho...
  28. Dear Mac, I just put two and two together and ...... Could you take a look and tell me if this is your number one without the collar? http://www.collectorsweekly.com/assets/stories/A3dun.Goa-...
  29. Ewe were really lucky. The harder you work the luckier you get. :o) I know it is a Ram but I couldn't help myself.;o) Sincerely, Lisa
  30. Dear Inky, Wow! Lovely find. Jim is great. His collection and his generosity to share information match. ;o) I love the pics. When you present a piece you sure do present it. Any secrets to sha...
  31. Thank you. I looked it up. It is similar but the chubby sister to the one Leah and I have. ;o)
  32. Dear Gayle, I think your lamp was made by Akro Agate Glass. I need to check but it is too late now so I'll get back to you tomorrow. They may have just supplied the base and shade but I'll let y...
  33. She is lovely! Nice find.
  34. Dear Ron, If they were wired fifty years ago it might be a good idea to rewire them. Or at least check the insulation on the wire and make sure it isn't perished. Sincerely, Lisa
  35. Thank you so much dlfd911, they are on the way to you now. The pics aren't great so if you need better ones just tell me. I can shoot in the morning with some daylight. I was tempted to send you a lin...
  36. I have a Rubina overshot pitcher that was my Mom's and when Brian Severn came back from Passau he kindly put his images up and sent a link to my art glass group at the time. While drooling on all the ...
  37. Yes, I understood that you said the lamp was sitting on the radio in the picture. I am sorry about your Mom. We are never old enough to loose parents are we? I hope your lamp reminds you of happy time...
  38. I can't help with the name of the maker but I can tell you that this same base was done as a clock too. Would you post the picture you have of the lamp on the radio? I would love to see it. Sincerely...
  39. Dear Fishiowa, Thank you. Yes, that first vase is what prompted my post. It is very similar in shape isn't it? I think when next the sunshines here I will shoot some more threaded shad...
  40. Dear walk softly, It is such a lovely photo and in such remarkable condition. Did you restore the image? If not do you know how it was so beautifully protected?
  41. Thank you Johann. I was thinking of the bird and basket of flowers. But I couldn't call up details. I will now google images and help my memory. Recall is much easier when I get foggy. I reall...
  42. Thank you Johann. I did see Frederick Lorenz and Co. in Ivo's Glass Fact file but there it lists them as just bottle makers. The initials work though don't they. In Monogram style it is the surname ...
  43. will it hold your eye glasses? Just a crazy stab in the dark. :O)
  44. Yes! If you are going to use the lamp do have it checked. Get it rewired if you are not comfortable doing it. If you can retain the socket if original, I would get some new rayon covered wire in a col...
  45. Wow! The detail in the metal work is lovely. You can almost smell the flowers and the braid, rope? is incredible. Lovely find. Sincerely, Lisa
  46. Thank you for sharing these here. I love the colour and the shapes too to my surprise. I am more into little old lady shapes usually. :O) Nothing like being introduced to new things. Thank you again. ...
  47. Dear KS, Do your shades have a notched fitter? Or are they like the one I posted the huge image of here. http://www.collectorsweekly.com/assets/stories/D5qXvbIa278L8VsYN-GMaQ.jpg Thank you. S...
  48. Thank you very much Epson, Rhonda, Inky and Just a novice. Just a novice, his name was William and he was the most loving, bright attentive beautiful dog ever. But I may be a tiny bit biased. ;o) He ...
