DescriptionThis pair of lamp shades has pleating throughout and a flamingo pink color. The border of the upper opening includes a gold colored frame made of thread, with designs similar to a doily, and what appears to be ribbon cloth in the center. The lampshades feature a skirt comprising the lower half of the surface, showcasing a scalloped top edge constructed with dark gold, shimmery threading. A border of roses attached to leaves, all constructed with ribbon cloth, contours the rounded form of the lampshade. A pleated lace portion is connected to the upper scalloped edge, leading down to more threaded, shimmery gold embellishments at the bottom.On View
