Sue Johnson Custom Lamps & Shades

We have developed our own techniques for mounting and displaying an astonishing array of artful objects for use as table lamps and floor lamps. Bill Jabas and Hank Schmutz put their woodworking talents to use making a large variety of wooden bases that enable us to extend our range of design options. Among our custom floor lamps we have mounted a trombone (completely removable) and we have turned an unused set of HO railroad cars into individual table lamps for one man’s grandchildren. Boxes of all types, wood and metal animals, African masks and ceremonial figures, and hand-hammered Mexican copper vessels have all been transformed into wonderful, unique table lamps and floor lamps. Antique Phoenix glass and contemporary Art Glass, antique and contemporary Art Pottery, Chinese cloisonné, Heintz Art Metal and Trench Art pieces are among the special items we use to create our unique lamps.
