The Touch of Tiffany - Unsurpassed Quality and Excellence By Dale Tiffany Inc.
Dale Tiffany Inc. has set out to bring the "Touch of Tiffany" back into the world. The mere mention of the word Tiffany will immediately call to mind an idea of quality and unsurpassed excellence. A master craftsman with a world renown reputation for producing one-of-a-kind masterpieces, Louis Comfort Tiffany set a benchmark for the rest of the world to follow. At the end, however, his company went bankrupt and he died with some of his greatest works being tossed into attics and trash bins. His work had been so popular and in such demand that it had become common and out of fashion. But, when some of his pieces began commanding six-figure sums at auction with a perpetually diminishing supply, the world once again took notice of the artist and his great works. By that point, however, hardly any could afford the "Touch of Tiffany". Dale Tiffany Background In 1979, Dale Tiffany embarked on an ambitious mission to produce high quality replicas and make the "Touch of Tiffany" affordable to the average person by reproducing original Louis Tiffany designs and styles. Dale Tiffany quickly became the only company in the world to standardize stained glass production. With the revolutionary new process and by using only the best hand-rolled glass, world-class reproductions became affordable. Dale Tiffany still employs the copper foil technique, originally developed by Louis Comport Tiffany over a century ago, to create one-of-a-kind works of art that are sought out by buyers the world over. Adhering to the design principles of masters such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Philip J. Handel, and of course Louis himself, Dale Tiffany is able to recapture the essence that made the Tiffany name infamous. Dale Tiffany is also able to create pieces that reflect contemporary design schemes and bring the trademark name into the 21st century. The same fanatical insistence upon excellence is employed by Dale Tiffany whether they are making a high-end replica or an affordable table or floor lamp. Inspired by the Tiffany products being appraised on a popular television show named The Antiques RoadshowTM, Dale Tiffany began making replicas of actual pieces depicted while filming. They are now known simply as The Antiques RoadshowTM Collection and all replicas are designed by the award winning Sergio Orozco. The collection has been a big hit with customers and continues to help set Dale Tiffany apart from the competition. Other famous collections offered by Dale Tiffany include the Sculpture, Museum, Traditional, Home, and of course the Tiffany. The range of products available from the Dale Tiffany company continues to grow with each year. Just a few of the products they offer are: wall sconces, accents, chandeliers, ceiling fixtures, stained glass windows, pendants, and a full range of table, desk and floor lamps. Of course their entire selection of lighting is available in a dizzying array of styles including Art Deco, Classical/Traditional, Arts & Crafts, Mission, Victorian, and Modern. Yes, the "Touch of Tiffany" is once again available with the same emphasis on quality. The only difference now is that Dale Tiffany has brought this fabled touch to the public at prices most can afford but still offering people the opportunity to acquire one-of-a-kind pieces at discount prices.

How to Properly Clean Hardwood Floors
Good care and maintenance of a hardwood floor enhances its life and appearance. Solid hardwood floors can be easily cleaned, and a daily cleaning routine is a must in order to protect the floors from grit and dirt that are most damaging problems. They create scratches, dents and dulling in the smooth finish layer of the flooring. Floor mats help in protecting the smooth layer of flooring by trapping dirt. Do not allow water to collect on the floor, as it can warp. Neutral pH cleansers developed for wood floors should be used for best results. Do not drag furniture over these floors. Felt contacts for legs are a must to avoid scratches on the flooring. A vacuum with a brush attachment is the right choice for cleaning the floor. Exposing the floor to direct sun could cause discoloring. Use drapes, curtains, blinds to block direct sun light. Floors should be swept regularly, and dust mops are recommended for dust.

Summertime Simplicity in Your Home Decorating
Here in the Northeast, summer is almost here. With hot humid weather approaching-it's already here in the southern part of the country-we can learn a few tricks from our grandparents. Before air conditioning was common, most housewives prepared their homes for the heat of summer. They knew the windows would be open letting in dust as well as fresh air. Children would be home from school and running in and out, dragging sand and dirt with them and dripping water from wading pools on the floors. Afternoons were a time to sit on the porch and drink lemonade, read a book, and visit with neighbors. No one wanted to be cleaning and scrubbing in 90 degree weather.
Installing Granite Countertops
Granite is not only the hardest material available for countertops; it's also the most expensive, with prices starting at $60 a square foot.

The beauty and warmth offer an aesthetic appeal that can't be found in other countertop materials.
Contemporary Grandfather Clocks

While much of their technology is a reflection of the earliest clocks, the styles have evolved through the years.

A Brief History of Wedgwood China
The story of the line begins in 1730 with the birth of Josiah Wedgwood to a family who manufactured pottery.

By 1760, Josiah had his own factory and had been experimenting with different formulas of porcelain, clays and glazes and technological advances in the art of transferring designs to the finished product. In 1765 he manufactured a complete set for Queen Charlotte, advertised himself as the "potter to the Queen" and his business took off.

Decorating for Real Life and Real People
I spent a recent weekend curled up with a stack of decorating magazines. I read them cover to cover - usually back to front, but that's the way I read most magazines and newspapers. I studied each photograph and tried to determine the particular design concept that was being presented. I looked at the number and placement of accessories, how and where arrangements of items were hung on the walls, choices of color and texture, and flooring selections. Each photo was scrutinized in the minutest detail. At some point I started to wonder for whom these absolutely gorgeous rooms were designed.
