Topic: ACB CAMEO? ART DECO LAMP SHADE

[Scott134]

I have tried to ID this lamp shade a while now without any luck. The design is dimensional. It is amber in color with a green "wash"? on the exterior. It looks different depending on whether it's lit and how bright the interior bulb is. It's about 12".  Any ideas on this?  Thanks

Thanks. I think so too.  The sad thing is that it has just been sitting in a box unappreciated.  I think it must be something good because it's pretty amazing which is why I never got rid of it.  Since I found this board, I am digging through boxes and closets looking for stuff I packed away.  On the bright side, it is getting me to clean a little.

That has to be French (okay, maybe Belgian).  But probably French.

Could Schneider, le verre français,  be a possibility, heres a few examples.

Good luck,

Still hoping. Someone on ebay had one almost like it a year ago for $500 and it didn't sell and disappeared.  They didn't know what it was either.

Hi Scott
I've been casting around looking for this on and off as I'm sure the pattern can be matched somewhere
As Max said on one of your other threads, it would be great if you could upload your pictures to the board please, as you have some fabulous glass and it would be wonderful to have them on the GMB for future reference.

I don't understand what you mean about uploading the pictures to the board. When I posted this, I used an upload link WHICH NO LONGER APPEARS TO BE PRESENT. LOL.  I uploaded these to this post and if you clicked on the post, the pictures were here and lokked great.  People replied. I came back and clicked on the post and the pictures were here. Now, several days later, there are just weird links in parentheses. What happened to my pictures.  They were here several days.  Now someone has to copy amd paste the links to view them which no one wants to do and most will not do (and I don't blame them).  What has happened to the board? How can I get pictures, not links, but actual pictures to show up on my posts again.  No wonder people aren't responding.

Hi Scott
There is a help section on the board which shows how to upload the photos directly to the board rather than them being a 'link' to a photo on a host site.  This ensures they stay on the board long after photobucket and other hosting sites may be down/forgotten/gone or if you remove your photos from the hosting sites.  If any of those things happens to a linked picture and the poster has not loaded directly to this board, we lose the pictures.  So we end up with a thread discussing a non existent piece.  I'm guessing this takes up board space and actually becomes a) very frustrating for future searchers as they can't see whether or not the item is relevant and b) makes the topic/thread redundant almost completely as no one knows what was actually being discussed.  This board is for the discussion of glass and also to help identify pieces, so it's quite vital that the pictures remain on the board otherwise the freely given information and freely given time to search and help id pieces, is wasted - a bit like a glass reference book without pictures, very few would buy it 
So the request is to upload them via something like irfanview, directly to here so they remain.
It takes a little sorting but not much (I'm really a techno dinosaur but eventually in my desperation lol, I managed to sort it out).
I hope this helps and looking forward to seeing more of your beautiful glass.
