I'm sorry! I can't help you but just would like to say that these shades of yours are so all beautiful.....:-)
OOOOOH ! Thanks inky .
The quality screams Loetz, but I'm not too confident. It certainly isn't Kralik, though.
What does it look like from the inside? That might help with attribution.
Awesome shade. Can't help, but it might get more notice if you list it under art glass as well.
Lovely shade. I had a similar one that was 10" in diameter and with blues and purples. It was on a Peter Tereszczuk lamp base and I always thought it was Loetz. Although I can't find a picture of it at the moment, it looked just like this one. http://www.carlsengallery.com/pastauc/3-16-2003/365.htm Great shade. What is the fitter diameter?
can you post a pic of it against a neutral background? the color is hard to tell for sure.

really exactly 4 " 84 Inches . diameter .
I have seen contemporary shades like this one made both in the Czech Republic and in the USA. This one is certainly very high quality.
Thanks Alfredo . you're always nice .
Do you have an idea of what is for ? Lamp ? Chandelier ?
Thanks again .
Albert
Yes .....now I see the whole shade. Very fine but hard to tell if it's Loetz or contemporary. I'm really not a shade person.
