Does anyone know if Lenz glass (made in FL in the 1990's) is still in business?  If so, where can I order it from?  Thanks.

There is a stained glass studio in Flagstaff, Arizona called Lenz Art Glass. Their phone number is 480-726-3862.

Also, there is a German company called Lenz Laboratory Glass that has a subsidiary that produces blown art glass objects (http://www.lenz-laborglas.de/vitrum.html).

There was Lins Glass for a while. I suspect they are gone. I had the misfortune of buying a few of their sheets once. I blew up an entire 24 x 36 sheet trying to cut one 4" x 6" rectangle. It was pretty, but was real crap. It might be alright for saw users.

The Lins Glass formulas were sold to Schlitz Studios in Milwaukee, WI over 12 years ago before Jim Schlitz passed away. Schlitz refined the colors, textures, and size of the sheets which cut easily. I was Schlitz's partner and founded Schlitz Studios Inc. in 1979. I believe I have the last of the glass. None of which is for sale. I use it for original repair work and an occasional reproduction upon request.
