We are not certain this is a Bohemian Shade; it could also be American as it looks very much like some of the tall Lundberg Studios shades. However, this shade has no fitter rim, so it was undoubtedly made for a specific purpose, possibly intended to hang. There is all-over iridescence, "oil spots," mottling, and even some feathering here and there. The fluted rim is folded for extra stability. Measures 6" tall, 6.25" diameter across the flutes, and about 1.75" diame ...click for details

This lamp is lovely when used as in the first photo. If desired, the pictured shade is also available for it. For many years, the owner used this lamp as you see it in photo no. 2, even though the two glass pieces are not an exact match. The lamp glass is cranberry, and the shade falls more into the amethyst category; the engraved patterns also are not a match, with the lamp glass being floral, and the shade being grape clusters. The lamp measures 14.5" to base of socket, 17" to to ...click for details
