The shade is tinted with a nice pale pink at the bottom that is fading to a slightly darker orangey colour at the top rim. The outside surface is prettily acid etched with a repeating clematis type flower pattern. It is a 4 INCH fit shade so will fit a standard Hinks or Messenger Duplex lamp gallery.
It is in very good condition with no chips or cracks. The glass has, as you would, expect air bubbles and flecks in it (nice and reassuring that it is original Victorian).
There is also, as you would expect, the odd very tiny fleabite and roughness to the cut and ground rims top and bottom (these are from when it was made). It measures approximately 19 cm (7 ½ inches) tall by 19 cm (7 ½ inches) wide at its widest.
I have taken a photo of the shade lit in my oil lamp to show how pretty it is when on a lit lamp. You may also see that it is sat on a standard Hinks burner.
