Glass Shade Recreated 8

0182G  Glass Shade Reproduction 8" Diameter Diamond Design Ball Gas Shade 2 5/8" Fitter

Light coming through this shade is just gorgeous!  You'll be transported to mid-19th century elegance.  This is a rare reproduction of a circa 1855 gas ball shade.

This shade is hand blown, hand cut, and hand trimmed, which gives a more authentic look than machine-made products.  They are 8% lead crystal, requiring skilled craftsmen to hand cut them...just as they would have been made over 100 years ago.

These shades give the perfect ambiance to the early gas chandelier reproductions - or an original, if you're fortunate enough to own one.  This design is a genuine recreation of an antique pattern which can be seen in the Dover reprint of the 1876 Mitchell Vance Catalog.

Measurements:  7" tall by 8" in diameter.  Fitter size is 2 5/8".
