Hi Grace,

I was waiting in case anybody else knew of some type of shade that fits the description, but it doesn't look like we've got any volunteers.

I've seen lamps made using the regular Tiffany technique and a lot of globs. Just foil them up and the rest gets filled with solder. Is this lamp of yours different from that?

: Hello,

: I'm interested in "attempting" to make one of those cool lampshades that use what looks
: like wire and a whoooole lotta glass nuggets. I can't figure out what type of wire to use
: so that the structure doesn't fold under the weight of all those nuggets.

: Any ideas? :-I

: Thanks for your help,
