<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 221881, member: 37"]Have heard the term mosaic used in conjunction with leaded glass shades. In fact, there was a company called the Chicago Mosaic lamp Co. that made such. It is not a term heard much these days. Also, the term stained glass is a misnomer. Technically, these are leaded colored glass shades. True stained glass is colored post-production of the actual glass.
