An absolutely stunning original French marbled glass frilly coolie shade in creamy yellow, which we have completed with an antiqued brass gallery and new brass bulb holder.  The marbling refracts the light beautifully and finding these particular shades is becoming more and more difficult.  The colour of this beautiful shade changes as light travels through it - golden in sunlight and when the bulb is on, and a brighter yellow in normal daylight. The last two photos show the difference.


We search antiques fairs and shops in France to source these and similar shades.  It's hard to date them exactly, but we think they were probably produced between the 1930s to 1950s.  We think they would look absolutely beautiful in just about any room, and also in a shop or café.  


In excellent condition, with no chips or cracks but please note that minor imperfections are inevitable with items of this age and which have been manufactured in small batches with a lot of hand finishing.  

Measures approx. 26cm diameter x 11cm max height.  Bulbholder is bayonet fitting.  Electric flex is not included with this shade.
