Hi, all! Madge, I believe Sarah Bayne planted that rose bush! Spring ‘03 with Doc, summer ‘03 and ‘05 with James. Planted and cultivated it either summer 03 or 05 (I think!!)
Thank you all so much for your responses and help. Laurel, that is a great idea to check in with that store on Burnet. Thank you for offering. Leigh, I'm so glad you found a place that makes custom chimneys, a great fallback if it comes to that. Heather, that shape does look right...I will order one of those Dietz Globes to see if it works. Terry, I'm excited you are working on a cabaret and will take to online sleuthing after. Kathy, Idalia, and Emily thank you for joining the hunt. I think it would be really cool if we find not just a suitable replacement, but two of the actual Artolier globes. Mike, I think I'd like to find replacement globes, if possible, first before looking to replace the lanterns. There's no rush. But you bring up an interesting point, though, about replacement lanterns. My understanding is that the Theatre Barn is not held to the same historical standards as other buildings on the property. I don't quite understand why, but I am interested in learning more and will share once I do. I just love the look of these lanterns and they do work...they just need some TLC and some missing parts.
Apparently, Winedale was rented out for a wedding at some point, and that is when the globes on the back two lanterns were broken. So rest easy that it was not Sh@W folks that did the breaking.
Thank you all for joining in!
On the list soon is updating the Welcome sign. That was given to Doc from the class of 1994. Doc and the class built the berm and set the posts and Susan Todd's sign shop did the work on the sign. Susan, I'll be looking to you for advice on how best to refurbish the sign. Does anyone know about the rose bush that grows behind the sign? That came later. I'm wondering if there's a story connected to that rose bush.
More soon! Madge
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?
Mike
Hi Madge and Laurel –
I love this kind of project!
Couldn’t find the right size here:

But this company makes custom lamp chimneys:

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.
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.
