Item:145529158927Vintage Rare Glass Slip Shade Filigree. This is an auction find that I have little knowledge about other than the small research attempt I made. It appears to be fairly rare and is considered a slip shade. Other than the rough texture to both edges, top and bottom which I remarked about in the condition report. I found nothing that appeared to be damaged. I like to add the condition report here to help anyone who might have trouble finding it. Condition This old glass shade is in pretty good shape and although I am not sure I would expect it to be from the early 1900's I say this because it is hard to find other examples of this style and design. Plus if you look at the last couple of photos I tried to show the roughness that the edges of the glass are in and I don't believe they are chipped. I think it is a flaw in the manufacturing process that may not have been completely developed at the time. Or, just that it was not enough of a defect to throw it away at the time because it was still as usefull as any that had smooth edges. Please let the photos be your main body of information on this item.
