Abstract
An outdoor lighting fixture having a composite lens assembly that includes a transparent liner or sleeve having a translucent mosaic covering composed of a plurality of glass shards having a grout compound infused in the interstices between the plurality of glass shards. The transparent liner is a thin-walled cup having a shape that is symmetrical about its vertical axis and is open at its upper end. The transparent liner may have a frusto-conical, cylindrical, parabolic, hemi-spherical shape or any combination thereof. While the liner or sleeve is preferably transparent, other embodiments may be colored or frosted translucent to provide differing illumination effects. In addition, while the exterior and interior surfaces of the transparent liner are preferably smooth, in other embodiments they may be textured. A novel two-step process for manufacturing the composite lens assembly is also disclosed.
