2 1/4 (2.25) Inch Vintage Empire Shaped Pink Frills Glass Shade
2 1/4 Fitter Hobnail Ruffled Glass Shade Cranberry Pink Tint Victorian Revival
The Ruffled Hobnail Shade That Turns a Fixture Into a Statement
This hobnail lamp shade in pressed clear glass with a cranberry-pink ruffled edge is the piece that makes a parlor lamp, wall sconce, or pendant light feel fully, unmistakably right. The body rises through vertical ribbing and a bold raised hobnail pattern before breaking into a wide, theatrical frill at the lower edge — tinted at the rim and folds with a warm rose-pink that deepens in the pleats and catches the light at every angle. It carries the full decorative vocabulary of Victorian and Edwardian Revival lighting: generous in form, a little theatrical in presence, and entirely at home on wall sconces, pendant lights, chandeliers, ceiling fixtures, and parlor lamps that demand the right period shade. The fitter opening is a standard 2 1/4 inches, making this a dependable replacement shade for the full range of vintage and revival fixtures built to that specification. The glass is clear and bright through the body, the cranberry tint is genuine and warmly concentrated at the ruffled edge, and the condition is honest and ready to use.
MEASUREMENTS
Overall height is 5 3/8 inches. Width at the widest point of the ruffled edge is 6 3/4 inches. The fitter opening measures 2 1/4 inches.
CONDITION
This is a vintage glass shade and wears its age honestly. Light wear is present around the fitter opening and minor surface character consistent with period manufacture and handling is visible on close inspection. No major damage is apparent in the photographs. The shade has been cleaned and is ready to install.
