[TheForge] RE: Repair

Dan,

Genuine Tiffany lamps are very well made.  What we usually see now is
something called "Tiffany style" lamps. These can be of any quality or
origin, they just have to resemble a Tiffany lamp.

has anyone ever tried to repair tiffany pieces. A friend brought me a night
light for repair that she thinks it is tiffany. That is what it was sold as.
Anywise this thing is very poorly made the lamp holder is just stuck on the
copper foil with a pile of soder and then silicone glued to give it
strength. Has Tiffany gone down hill?
