Comments: A disappointment It is a good idea to have elaborate panel lamp patterns for the expert glass crafter. However, it is disappointing to see that the authors did not even bother to make the lamps themselves, or to at least give a pictorial representation of what the 3D project would look like once finished with proper perspective. I would not dare begin such elaborate projects without the certainty that the lamps would have a pleasing, harmonious shape.

Comments: Excellant Representation of Tiffany Designs Tiffany made some of the most complicated lamps ever produced, a lot of the design was created with his choice of the individual pieces of glass he used. I used these images for computer application, so the complexity was welcome. It would require the skill level of an experienced glass artist to reproduce Tiffany-like lamps; the representations of which are widely available on the Internet. I would suggest anyone considering making a lamp with actual glass, copy the tiny image (the line quality of the images is very good) and taping it together if it is necessary to have a visual image of the shape of the completed lamp.
