Songbird Bridge Lamp Shades are a cheery addition to brass and iron floor lamps. Dramatically hued birds, finches, blue birds, and wood thrushes beautifully adorn the crisp white background. Every-other panel proudly showcases a different songbird.

Our Parchment Lampshades are expertly crafted and very difficult to make. Each requires skillful craftsmanship, attention to detail and many hours of hand-work to create. The process starts by stabilizing the parchment paper with hard white buckram. This is a coarse linen lining that provides added strength to each lampshade panel. The tedious work is then attaching the parchment to a hand-crafted, rust resistant metal frame. Once assembled gold binding is applied by hand, accenting the individual patterns displayed on each panel. Made in America
