an amazing French vintage 1940s / 1950s hand painted vellum boidoir lampshade signed by the artist. I purchased this in a large country house sale this past weekend and it had been stored away in the attic wrapped in tissue paper and boxed for decades. I have never seen anything quite like it, beautiful colors with mustard and deep orange on the body of the shade and delicately painted with flowers, and on the front a water scene with 2 black swans in the centre panel. The seams are tr...immed in a ols gold coloured metallic braid, and all round the bottom wonderful glass beaded fringe. Its a good size and measures 13" high inc fringe and 18.5" wide at the bottom and 12" deep a super vintage piese signed by the artist and I assure you that you wont see another like it. Thanks for looking
