    Hello,
    I inherited this lamp from my grandmother. There are no identifying details on it, but it’s been in her home for as long as I can recall - at least the 70s. My grandfather used to frequent auction houses, and I’m wondering if anyone might tell me some information about it? Thanks!

    Thank you! Are you saying this isn’t leaded? I just assumed it was.

    Yep, reproduction 70s or so. Copper foil technique is a form of leading. It is the way most stained glass mosaic lamp shades are made.

    I'm uncertain about the copper foiling here....but even if it is...the lead has been applied very poorly...

    I see no evidence of copper foil used on the glass before leading..

    That seems to have been a standard base for the company.

    The copper foil gets completely covered by the solder.
