Stone County Missouri Library Chandalier
The Stone Co. library commissioned me to do a chandelier to hang in there cozy reading area a few years ago. It is approximately 5' across from point to point of it's six sides.We used sheet mica to save on weight and to give it a more comfortable lodge feel. Oak leaf arches accent each side and an oak leaf cluster finishes off the center. The four chains it hangs by are made of joined copper tubing to hide the wire more affectively. All the copper has a clear coat on it to keep the bright brushed finish for years to come. The metal used in this light is solid copper. I use no copper paint or plating and all parts are welded together with copper rod and acetylene torch.

Toad's Tool Copper Shop
Toad's Tool Copper Shop has been in the Ozark Mountains for over 35 years. In that time I have worked on projects, residential, commercial and municipal. My wife and I best like to work with individuals on their personal projects as that gives us a chance to get to know our clients on a one to one basis. All of our creations, be it artwork or any of our lighting, are all built to stand the test of time and last for generations to come. We use only solid copper and U.L.listed components in all of our lighting. We use old world technics along with precision construction and design to give the client complete satisfaction. These are not lights that you need to replace in 5 or 6 years. These are lights that you can hand down to your children. We specialize in Rustic, Lodge style lighting but will discuss any item with you. Please consider us for that special,Statement Piece, you are considering.
