I think the temp needed to melt silver solder might melt the glass or
scorch the collage inside...

You may need the low-temp solder for that reason. And if Tiffany lamps
and windows are held together with it, can it be substandard in some
way?

What would I need to do this with silver? Keep in mind I have never worked
with silver before in this way. Is there silver solder that looks like (and
you use like) regular solder?

Silly me! I meant to say it might *crack* the glass. I know it takes a
higher temp to melt glass than to melt silver solder. Just thought it
might not stand up to the torch as well as a soldering iron.
