Art Nouveau Slag Glass Lamp
About

This Art Nouveau lamp is missing the flower and leaves. |
| The glass panel behind one of the flower and leaves was removed and the flower and leaves were cut out with a jewelers saw. |

Featured in this picture is Georgia Swanson, she is a very gifted local artisan. Bob calls on her when he needs her expertise for a particular project. Forms for the mold were pre adjusted. |
| The good piece is flattened in preparation for the mold. |  |
 |
The existing piece is placed in the mold. |
| Then Georgia is preparing to remove the existing piece from the mold. |  |
 |
The existing piece is removed from the mold. You can faintly make out the mold below the piece. |
| Now the new piece has been poured hot into the mold. |  |
 |
The new piece is now removed from the mold. |
| We can see the comparison between the two pieces. |  |
 |
Both pieces were resoldered back on to the frame. Then the glass was put back in. |
| The petina of the new piece was matched to the rest of the lamp. |  |

What a joy to be able to save this beautiful Art Nuveau lamp. |
