Stained glass by the Lifford Company Owl (Owls with ear tufts are apparently called "horned owls") This is a replica made by the Lifford Company of America. Made of glass, the frame is metal. The edges are beveled glass, and it is colored with translucent paint. Although it differs from the manufacturing methods of the Glassmasters and Toronto Stained Glass companies, which are also on display, you can enjoy the light refraction effect like a prism. It is a handmade item. The original is unknown. It has detailed depictions like a picture book. Since Glassmasters produces stained glass of the same type using glass (beveled glass), I believe this one is also from the 1970s. A cute little owl If you put plants and trees in the background to create a green landscape, you'll feel like you're in a forest. Owls have been considered symbols of wisdom and learning since ancient times. Furthermore, they are written with当て字 (phonetic characters) as 不苦労 (fukuro - no hardship), 福来朗 (fukurō - good fortune comes), 福老 (fukuro - to age happily), and are said to bring good luck, and are considered very auspicious birds. The size is: Height: 15.4 cm, Width: 10.3 cm, Thickness: 0.5 cm. The Lifford Company is no longer in business. When you hold it up to the light, the stained glass shows very beautiful colors. It has a precise construction and a strong presence and texture. I also have many other stained glass pieces on display, mainly by Louis C. Tiffany and Glassmasters. A hanging chain and hook are included. Louis C. Tiffany Glassmasters Metropolitan Museum
