Hand blown glass
One of the most exciting features here at Metal Design is our collaboration and friendship with Anchor Bend Glass, located in Newport, RI. Anchor Bend Glassworks produces exceptional hand blown glass for Metal Design. Their quality and craftsmanship compliments the unique pieces created here at Metal Design. By combining the two mediums of copper and hand blown glass, Metal Design produces extraordinary pieces like no other. An example of this exclusive collaboration is our Propeller Lamp, shown with Anchor Bend Glassworks’ “scalloped” shade.

Stained plate glass
Metal Design cuts each piece of stained glass in-house for each order received. This gives our customers many different options to create the desired ambiance. Featured pieces include- the Ring Lamp, shown with a white and amber-swirled stained glass. A deep brown and gold-swirled stained glass can be seen with our Study Lamp. Of course, clear and opaque glass is available as well. Please call for specific colors not listed here, we are happy to accommodate your needs.

Mica
Metal Design also uses mica in our lamp shades. This detail bestows an old world look, and emits a pleasant glow throughout the room. A great example of this can be seen with the Starburst Lamp. One of the best features when working with mica is that it can be shaped and contoured to fit a specific radius.
