As in the city … Richmond, Indiana … founded in 1806 !

Richmond, being the home of
1 of only 10 … Madonnas Of the Trail !

And … the world renowned … Starr Jazz Recording Studio of the early 20th century!

The fabric of this particular vintage shade is a rich, substantial, textured cotton, weave … of black and tan plaid … in almost perfect condition.

The hexagon wire structure is rock solid.

This is a really beautiful vintage shade made in the early 80s … by my mother … a true craftsman… who made several hundred lamp shades … with impeccable attention to detail.

This one is a masterpiece.

She won’t be happy with me trying to unload it! Not at at all.

But … we’ve gone MCM in our later years; and this belongs in a rustic, colonial, or farmhouse setting. Or maybe in your lake cottage.

The trim, gross grain, the connections, and the framework fittings … are all also tight as a drum.

The interior liner appears to be of a durable plastic finish….

The hexagon shape is also flared out … from top to bottom!

It glows warmly when lit up. Especially so at night.

Really, really hate to part with it.

Did I say … really ?

If it doesn’t sell real soon … we’re gonna retrieve it from the marketplace. As it’s worth $200+.
