Ace of Shades
Multicolored Kimono Silk Mini Old Fashion
This is a small one-of-a-kind hand stitched silk lampshade in shades of rust, blue, green, cream, mustard and purple. It glows amber when lit. It’s made with two vintage kimono silks—one with an organic cloud motif and one in a small-scale geometric floral pattern. It’s trimmed with rust and green braid and hand-dyed green and blue European tassels.
This lampshade is made with a spider fitter and is appropriate for a small table lamp. It’s pictured here on an 16” antique style table lamp (including a 7” harp). This listing is for the LAMPSHADE ONLY, but email me and I can give you some guidance on finding an appropriate lamp to pair with your new lampshade or even help source one.
Dimensions:
8” tall + 3.5” fringe
8” wide
I recommend you use an LED with this lampshade to keep the silk in its best condition long-term. I typically use 40 watt equivalent warm white LED bulbs.

Please use with an LED bulb to minimize heat and keep the silk in its best condition long-term. I like 40 watt equivalent warm white LEDs.
Dust occasionally by blowing with a hair drier on cool/low settings or with a dry cleaning sponge. I like Sparkle Plenty’s “lampshade cleaner” sponge.
