DescriptionThis pair of lampshade portions is likely the bulb shield, as they have a curved form throughout. The outer surface of the lamp portions shows intricate decorative embellishments. A border of roses connected with leaves constructed of ribbon cloth creates a border around the perimeter, accompanied by a threaded, dark gold, shimmery portion. The outer perimeter is also framed with white lace. The central surface showcases a flamingo pink background, in addition to threaded, dark gold, shimmery, intricate embroidery on either side of a central rectangular strip, which showcases white lace designs. The underside showcases the metal clip portions of the bulb covers, in which the portion would likely attach to the frame of the lampshade.On View
