What lighting fixture won't you find here?

Forest Hill also specializes in creating lamps from hand-painted porcelain pieces, which owner Donald Lunnen says is a much less expensive way to go than buying them ready-made. Pick from several walls of jars and vases, then add your choice of metal finish, shade and finial ($100-$250).
Forest Hill Lighting is at 2333 Rock Spring Road, Forest Hill. Call 410-838-4112 or go to foresthilllighting.com. (Sloane Brown, Baltimore Sun)
