I did some poking around on various websites when this notice came across, and I found myself coming up with results similar to Madge's. This led me to wonder (a) if a good solution might be to find four matching lanterns of similar vintage and materials--possibly from Artolier--and (b) would four lanterns of this sort be sufficiently authentic?

Hi Madge and Laurel –
I love this kind of project!
Couldn’t find the right size here: https://antiquelampsupply.com/collections/lamp-chimneys
But this company makes custom lamp chimneys: https://www.vitriforms.com/custom-glass-manufacturing/custom-lamp-chimneys/

Hi Madge -
There is a fantastic lamp store on Burnet Road that also has an excellent restoration crew. I will drop by there, and see what they could do for us, or see if they have suggestions.
Thanks, Laurel

Hi Friends,
The Theatre Barn at Winedale has four vintage lanterns that I'm sure you will recognize. Two are in the front and two are in the back. Two of the four glass chimneys are broken. Rather than replace the fixtures, I would love to track down some replacement glass chimneys. They are an unusual size. The glass chimney says "Artolier Corp." in cursive writing at the top of the glass. It is approximately 9" tall with a fitted top of 4.5" and a fitted bottom of 5". Below I've pasted pics and links of ones I've found online, but these have already been sold. Are any Shakespeare sleuths or antique pickers out there willing to join me in this search? If we could find them, I believe Winedale Historical Center would reimburse us for the cost.
Here are the links where I found the pics above:

Happy hunting!
Thanks,
Madge
