Glass Lamp Shade with Pink Fluted Edge

Made - ???



A note from Sharon on Monday 5th March 2007

My friend Rhona gave me this lampshade

She had bought an old Queenslander home
and she found it when she was cleaning out the garage
It was with a pile of junk which was ready to take to the rubbish tip

Fortunately she knows how I like anything old, vintage and antique
- and she knew I would like it

So she saved it - and she was right - I do like it!!

Measurements

140mm high x 158mm across the fluted end (5.5 inches x 6.25 inches)

Unfortunately, at this stage we have no way
of determining the age of the one that
Sharon was given
