This is a lovely antique cut glass hanging shade - it would look good in a hallway or a bedroom.
It is one of two matching handing shades that I have in my store. My other one is perfect - this one has a tiny chip to the rim of the shade - which is only obvious when you have removed the chrome fitting to replace a light bulb. You certainly cannot see it when it is on display or from a distance.
Both my matched shades date to the early 20th Century and they have a stylised 1920s design. The glass shade is an original one - and not a later reproduction.
The pendant shade is a quirky acorn shape with deeply engraved geometric criss-cross decoration around the neck - as you might find on crystal glasses. The chrome (on brass) gallery holding the shade is a replacement - but is to the same design as the original one would have been. The cable simply attaches to your light connections in your ceiling rose.
The shade measures including the holder 6 3/4 inches in height. From the tip of the shade to the rim - it measures 6 1/4 inches. The diameter at the rim is 3 1/8 inches and is 4 inches in diameter at its widest point.
I love the engraved decorations cut into the clear glass of the main body section. It is very Art Nouveau in style. There are three large sun or sunflower shapes - and in between are lengths of fine vertical hanging floral garlands There is an engraved star on the base.
The shade is in excellent condition with only the chip to the rim, as mentioned - it is just really lovely and hard to find - never mind a pair. I have reduced the price on this one to take into account the wee rim chip.
I have two of these on offer for sale (listed separately).
The shade will be very carefully packed and sent to you with Royal Mail Recorded Mail (Small Parcel). This will be applied to your order at checkout.
