Antique Arts & Crafts Mica Lamp Shade :

This is a great looking antique Arts & Crafts mica lamp shade.

It dates circa 1920s.

It measures 8 inches tall (21.6 cm). The top measures 7 1/2 inches across (19 cm) from corner to corner. The bottom measures 12 1/8 inches across (30.8 cm) from corner to corner.

This shade gives off a beautiful warm golden glow when it\'s lit up.

It has decorative pieces on the bottom and what look to be fleur de lis on the top. These pieces were all attached to the lighter color mica which makes up most of the lampshade. Along the bottom there is a wonderfully designed trim. That same color trim separates each of the panels and goes around the whole top. It\'s a brass color, but it has quite a bit of wear to it.

There are a few very tiny areas with peeled off finish, but these are barely noticeable.

The place where you would sit the ring of the shade on the lamp has a 1 3/8 inches (3.5 cm) wide opening, as opposed to a much smaller opening for a finial. It will need some type of an adjuster such as a wide washer to put it onto a lamp. I\'m thinking the shade may have originally been for a bridge floor lamp where that ring screwed onto a socket.

Given its age, it\'s in very good condition. It\'s a real beauty!

It weighs 1 lb. 2 oz. (512 g).
