What Makes a Custom-Made Art Glass Lamp Truly Special?
Every custom-made art glass lamp carries more than light—it holds a story. At Schilling Glass, each lamp is carefully crafted through collaboration, blending artistic vision with personal meaning. Many clients come with an idea or image close to their heart, and together we shape it into a piece that reflects their individuality. The process is about partnership, ensuring that when the lamp is finished, the response is: “That’s exactly what I had in mind.”
Bringing Light to Life with a Custom LED Glass Lamp
A custom LED glass lamp goes far beyond function. It is designed to cast unique shadow patterns and project vibrant imagery, creating a visual experience that changes with lighting. From daylight streaming across its surface to the glow of its internal LED, each lamp has a personality that transforms its surroundings.
Whether it’s the strength of a tiger, the mystery of a cat, or the beauty of interconnected designs, every lamp captures emotion. A custom-made glass lamp isn’t simply an object—it’s an atmosphere, a presence that elevates a room while expressing a personal story.

This lamp celebrates my most essential supplier, Precision Powders (PP). Their products, fusion-bond powder coating, happen to be foundational to what I create. Instead of liquid paint, these dry powders glaze under heat. PP offers a huge variety of colors and finishes. Without first creating and perfecting my own techniques for applying powder material onto glass, I could not create any of my lamps and the projections they display.
Here, I composed twigs of ginkgo leaves encircling the lamp. This arrangement enabled me to display a small selection of PP colors. There are nine separate powder colors displayed. Also, on several leave, there’s a topping gloss layer.
The winner of the 2022 Lion’s Club International Peace Poster Contest was thirteen-year-old Anje Rozan of Slovenia. Her poster is titled, “We Are All Connected.” I created this lamp using the imagery of her poster as an expression of my gratitude to Anje for her uplifting painting. Her imagery has a powerful impact on people. This lamp is my gift to Anje.
In Anje’s words: “Humans are woven together; if someone gives up, others fall.”
Jaxson was a seven-year-old smile walking around as a boy. He loved baseball. Tragically, in 2024 a DIPG brain tumor cut him from the roster. He was treated at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. This lamp is a memorial commissioned by a close friend of Jaxson’s mother, Carisa Rand. This lamp is now displayed at the Naturalist Gallery, Washington, D.C.
Our dog walker came to be a friend. As a frequent visitor, my work drew her interest. After an exchange of service, creating a lamp that she conceived seemed the best way to express my gratitude. More than dogs, she loves cats. Frolicking under wisteria was her idea of a perfect setting.
When I first began using powder materials as a creative art medium, Ismael stepped into a critical role. Using powder material to make a glaze on glass, required a lot of tool building. And testing. And lots of parts. With Ismael’s Fernandez ‘s critical skills, I moved ahead. I could not create the lamps I’m now offering without his timely contributions. He likes cats. Big cats. As an expression of gratitude, I presented The Tiger as a gift for Ismael and his family.
