Painted Shades   Updated 5/10/2013

These shades are enameled with a variety of scenes ranging from lakes and castles to cottages and forests. Almost always in marigold. Some have been fuond with Czechoslovakian labels. Prices vary widely, so I suspect the price of any particular shade is determined more by interest of particular people at an auction than any intrinsic value. Nonetheless, here are a few for reference:

Cabin scene, 9 inch, 150 (1998)
Castle scene, large, 250 (2001)
Castle scene, 4 sold as set, 120 (2002)
Castle scene, 55 (2003), 135 (2013)
Castle scene on hanging fixture, 145 (2005)
Castle scene on gooseneck lamp, 125 (2004)
Mountain winter scene, 145, 165 (both 1996)
Water scene on desk lamp, 110 (2003)
Winter scene on hanging fixture, 190 (2005)
Painted shade hanging fixture, marigold, 25 (2007)


This set of shades was sold as a chandelier as it included brass fittings for hanging. Together, they sold for $250 at the 2012 Keystone Carnival Glass Club auction. Photo courtesy of Jim Wroda Auctions.
