A beautifully crafted lamp shade from the Lustre Art Glass Company, exemplifying the finest traditions of early 20th century American iridescent glassmaking. This elegant bell-form shade features the iconic pulled feather design, with graceful golden amber plumes rising from the base against a luminous cream opalescent ground.
The feather motif displays exceptional craftsmanship, with each strand delicately drawn upward in flowing, naturalistic lines that capture the organic aesthetic of the Art Nouveau movement. The surface shimmers with subtle iridescent highlights of pink, blue, and violet, most notably where the feathers meet the opalescent body, creating a captivating interplay of color and light.
The base features a distinctive threaded or ribbed collar in warm amber, providing both visual interest and a secure fit for standard fixture mounting. When illuminated, the shade radiates a warm, ambient glow that showcases the depth and complexity of the iridescent finish.
