Cone-shape lighting sconces are one of the latest additions to Studio K Glassworks’ fused glass production line. The sconces measure 9 1/2 by 19 inches and come in four stock patterns–Border, Dot, Line and Harlequin–and like the rest of Kathleen Ash’s creations, have an iridescent surface achieved through the use of a tin salt sprayed on the glass before firing. The sconces slide into a metal bracket mounted to the wall. Line, Border and Harlequin cost $350, Dot $375 at No Place Like, 300 W. Grand Ave. No Place also can order Studio K’s other exciting new offering: fused glass wall tiles in Zen-simple patterns. Custom orders are available for sconces and tiles. Call 312-822-0550.

YOU LOOK MAHVELOUS

Weight loss may be as simple as buying the right fridge. When you approach the new Amana contour refrigerator, the curved surface of the door alters your reflection, creating the illusion of a more-slender you. The high-gloss ebony color offers the best reflective surface, but the countour fridge also comes in white, bisque and stainless steel. You will find them in stores this spring for $999 to $1,699. To locate the nearest dealer, call 800-843-0304.
