In this beautiful new book you will find one of the finest collections of library lamps in existence today. This book contains an array of Victorian library lamp shades ranging from hand-painted Bristol to art glass shades of cranberry, ruby, yellow, amber, vaseline, blue, green, amethyst, and more. Manufacturers featured include The Ansonia Brass & Copper Company; The Bradley & Hubbard Company; The Meriden Malleable Iron Company; The Edward Miller Company; The Charles Parker Company; and The Pittsburgh Lamp, Brass and Glass Company. The glass produced by these companies ranged from white Bristol to beautiful colored crystals, satins, and mother of pearls, often designed in patterns of hobnail, bullseye, diamond quilt, swirl, zipper, snakeskin, geometric, raindrop, and so on. Full-color, full-page photographs are included in this detailed book. Victorian library lamps were not only sold at distribution retail stores operated by the manufacturers, but also sold by huge retail giants. When using independent retailers catalogs, the task of verifying correct manufacturers is quite challenging; this book attempts to pinpoint various manufacturers for readers. 2008 values.

National architectural magazine now in its fifteenth year, covering period-inspired design 1700–1950. Commissioned photographs show real homes, inspired by the past but livable. Historical and interpretive rooms are included; new construction, additions, and new kitchens and baths take their place along with restoration work. A feature on furniture appears in every issue. Product coverage is extensive. Experts offer advice for homeowners and designers on finishing, decorating, and furnishing period homes of every era. A garden feature, essays, archival material, events and exhibitions, and book reviews round out the editorial. Many readers claim the beautiful advertising—all of it design-related, no “lifestyle” ads—is as important to them as the articles.
