Good morning,
We received the 2nd shade that we’ve ordered from you, and it is
fantastic. We couldn’t be happier.
Thank you!
Have you considered creating a Christmas shade? We’d love to be able to
change one of our shades to a
Christmas-themed shade in December.
Thanks again,
Rick and Katie

Hi Nan-
Thanks for the Shipping Overage Refund.
The shade is part of a gift I’m giving to an elderly, long term client
(24 years) of mine. She’s basically a shut-in and I’ve always noticed a
beautiful but dirty bridge lamp stuck in a random corner of her
apartment.
Never once was it turned on and it had an ugly fabric shade of the wrong
style that just drove me nuts. It was a crying shame to see this
beautiful
piece not being used or appreciated.
Well, she moved into a new and modern apartment after being 27 years in
her
old place. As a gift to her, I cleaned and rewired the lamp and knew,
from
previous internet searches, about your business. This shade is perfect
for
the lamp and for who she is.
I’ll be seeing her later this afternoon for her next massage and will be
presenting her with her refurbished lamp. I’m thrilled about today’s
visit and gift.
Thanks for being a huge part of it.

Hello Nan,
We received our shade and it is stunning. Just perfect and well made.
You outdid yourself on packaging and shipping also.
We had no idea it
would come this quickly.
Thank you ever so much. Very nice doing business with you.
Oh Nan, almost forgot to mention the shipping refund amount. Yes I did
open Carefully and found it there.
Thank you

Hi Nan,
As I expected, your lampshade is absolutely beautiful on my circa. 1915
Roseville Pauleo lamp.
You do exquisite work. I am amazed at how strong and substantial that
the shade is compared
to other mica shades I have seen. There is absolutely no comparison. You
are a true craftsman.
I look forward to purchasing my next lamp base and having you craft
something exquisite for it as well.
Well done!!!!!!!!
My warmest regards,
Bill
My Custom Mushroom 14 Table Shade in Light Amber :
July 11, 2021
Hello,
From what I've gleaned from the internet I think that Ms. Nancy Merte
designed and built my beautiful mica lamp shade
that has brought my beautiful Art Nouveau Deco lamp back into my life.
It's always been with me since I bought it in
Longmont, Colorado in 1977 for $20. It has traveled with me around the
country since, but about 10 years ago the existing UNO lamp shade
disintegrated.
Now it resides in my living room giving me the warmth it was always
meant to bring from over a century ago.
Thank you and please enjoy the photo.
Sincerely,
Danny Shobe,

Dear Nan,
Here it is on one of my lamps. Hard-to-find ornate solid brass/bronze.
I don’t know if the African bells/ball chain will stay. (They need
work.)
Looking to add bits of pyrite crystral (fools gold) on the chandelier
tips.
We’ll see.
My sister gave me another pair of lamps to ‘do’.
May order more shades from you this week, but not solid on this yet.

We love the shade it is perfect.
The lamp has been in my family my whole life.
We never had a mica shade and could not find an appropriate one since
they changed lamp styles.
It never occurred to me to look up vintage shades!
We found rayon cloth covered wire that is also like the wires i grew up
with. It completes it.
Thank you very much.

The shade is exquisite...
Sooo glad to have been able
to have you make it for us!
The lamp is the only one I
have ever seen like this,
adjustable height on a rope
cord. I have a few more
different styles of bridge
lamps yet to restore for the
daughter and daughter in
law. I hope to have you make
the shades for them also.
Your craftsmanship is
wonderful.
Thanks again,

Hello Nan,
Thank you for your fine work ...
and a very nice touch - the
shipping
notification arrived this
morning
and the shade arrived late
morning - outstanding!
I enclosed pics of a new base I
just purchased - a tad better
than the one I purchased earlier
I think you'll agree.
Thank you!
p.s. ... I'll be back with
another custom soon...

Good Morning Nan,
Thanks for doing all the shades
(9) so quickly. They look great
on our antique lamps.
My big problem is I want to take
them all home.
Have a good week.

Nan,
Received the shade and put it on
our old bridge lamp.
It is so beautiful! I can't tell
you how delighted I am with it.
You have a wonderful sense of
form and the workmanship is
extraordinary.
So glad I found you. I had been
searching for a shade for a long
time
and had gotten quite frustrated.
So glad I didn't just settle for
a silk shade.
Thanks again for your artistry.
