This is a continuation of the shades I found in a box in the basement. http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/216038-vintage-glass-shades?in=192
So far I have found that the first shade resembles the Phoenix Glass Co. Art Deco Domes from the 30's but is different.
Asking for some help with this term "Milk Glass" Is this what these shades are classified as?
Thanks
Milk Glass is common name for white glass. The phoenix glass shade was probably from a store or institution, hung from a metal ceiling fixture with either chains or wires. Circa 30' -40's. The other shade is probably from a pendant type fixture. Circa 60' - 70's. mid century modern.
Thanks for the input rocker-sd.
I'm not actually sure it is an actual phoenix shade. There are no markings on it I can find, and it looks slightly different from the Actual phoenix shades I was able to find online. It measures 15 1/2" wide x 5" deep
