Great Mid Century brass framed Capiz shell hanging ceiling lampshade. This lampshade is in good condition. The naturally coloured capiz shell is in a geometric design with the brass holding the many sections together and with a scalloped edge. This shade has never actually been used and still has its original hanging tag. This will look stunning as the light casts its shadows across the room. Capiz comes from the shell of the Placuna placenta mollusc, which is native to the seas of Southeast Asia, specifically Indonesia and the Philippines. The molluscs are edible, which means fishermen can harvest them for their meat and reduce waste by reusing their shells for décor and handicrafts. Dimensions: H 24 cm W 37 cm Era: Late 70s early 80s Materials: Capiz shell, brass Condition: A vintage piece in good condition with some signs of wear and use commensurate with age. Marks to the shell and slight damage to the brass frame as visible in the images...more
