 Restoration Begins

 The search for the original manufacturer of the opalescent glass surrounding the leaflet motif leads us to Kokomo Opalescent Glass company where we find the exact glass we need in an original turn of the century panel in one of their offices. Kokomo agrees to make a custom batch based on the original recipe.
