Last summer, just before the accident with my computer chair, I was lucky to run across a deal of a lifetime. A friend of a friend of a friend - let me know about a bent-lamp business that hadn't been active since the 80's. They had a warehouse full of glass and lamp parts and most important a BIG kiln.
Besides my new big boy kiln I was able to pick up boxes and boxes of brass stampings, bevels and stained glass.
The most exciting find in the boxes were Murano Glass bead fringe from the 70's & 80's.

Hey, Glassy did you keep all those bent-lamp molds? We still get one or two lamps a year where people wish to replace a broken piece. What a totally awesome find!
I wish I had the room to have taken them all, I only grabbed a few of the smaller ones. I do have a couple boxes of bent glass I grabbed.
It was an awesome find and am sick over what I couldn't take because of the injury and space. The rest was just thrown into a dumpster.
