"From time to time, a few publishers of first rank will, at great time and expense, produce exhaustive and beautifully illustrated references giving the collecting and appraising world a single fine source for learning about a single great producer of one category of decorative art, or one historic collection. Schiffer has done it again with these three volumes on Pairpoint Lamps."

More than 570 Pairpoint lamps with their distinctive glass shades are shown in this and the companion volume that comprise the catalog. They represent a broad sample of the production of Pairpoint lamps from 1900 to the early 1930s. The most remarkable feature of the catalog is that so many of the pages are hand-colored with watercolors, having been painted by the original factory decorators. This practice occurred at the factory when orders for the lamps were slow.
