Authentic designs are the basis of almost every piece we make. We have provided a link to this page from each item that we copied from or based on a published artifact, so you can enjoy looking at the originals too. Abbreviations used in the catalog appear here in boldface. We know of some resources, especially individual papers, that are not included in this list because we have not yet copied a piece from them, but please let us know if you are familiar with additional sources. We are always looking for more good ideas!
