Designed in the iconic manner of Stiffel, this shallow-drum oval shade features a richly textured black faux alligator/crocodile skin exterior accented by elegant top and bottom piping. The interior is lined with a highly reflective, lustrous bronze-gold metallic foil that casts a warm, dramatic glow when illuminated. Constructively rigid and substantial, it is built with a heavy-gauge solid brass spider fitter framework. An ideal high-quality replacement piece for a classic 2-light or 3-light French Empire, neoclassical, or Hollywood Regency brass desk lamp. No maker's mark.
