This is a fine reproduction of a folder of separate catalog pages, together with a 16-page price list, that Lotus issued in about 1959. We have digitized our originals at an extremely high resolution, and printed them on the same sort of heavy gloss and semi-gloss papers as the original. Some pages are in color, and the reproduction has been carefully color-corrected to match the originals.

For ease of identification by the collector, we have added a 10-page index that includes all 373 pieces pictured or described in the catalog pages. Many other pieces are described in the price list. In all, the reproduction catalog contains 62 pages of information, inluding several new pages of enlarged etching and cutting designs which we have added.

The following decoration types are included in the catalog:

Carved
Cut
Etched
Gold/Platinum Banding
All-Over Gold on Gold
Bent Colored Glass
Enamel with Gold or Platinum
Bent Glass with Enamel and Gold
Bent Glass with Gold/Platinum

Many types of sets are pictured, with alternate configurations described and priced. Accessory items meant to complement popular patterns are included as well.

The original documents were acquired several years ago by Lotus Glass collector and archivist Frank Consentino, from whom we then acquired them. This is a wonderful and rare source of information - an unusual and informative gift for you or your favorite Lotus Glass collector.

This is a printed book, not a photocopy. Our methods allow us to obtain an unusual image clarity and depth of detail. The pages are bound between heavy clear covers with plastic coil. The spiral coil binding, unlike a comb binding, allows this book to remain unharmed when left open at the desired place. This edition is intended to be a permanent reference.
