"A picture is worth a thousand words" pretty much sums up the lamps you will see on this site.  So, I have included lots of pictures in order to provide you with a visual feast of each original design. 
Each of these lamps is unique.  I never duplicate.  Even when I purchase a set of antique lamps I do not attempt to make matching shades, that is, unless I receive a special request to do so.  One of the reasons for this is that quite often I have only a limited supply of a vintage fabric or trim.  I have, over many years of collecting and sewing with fabric, perfected the art of mixing, matching and coordinating various pieces.  The fabrics and trims I use might be ancient silk kimono fabric or newer designer fabrics, strands of antique beads or luscious imported pieces.  Whatever I find at my fingertips becomes even more
beautiful as I drape, pin, tuck, and stitch these exquisite pieces together and then attach them to a unique frame.    Come in and see for yourself
