How to find a place that will make a custom glass shade?
May 15, 2017 7:53 AM Subscribe
I ordered this shade on the chairish website, and it arrived looking like this
...WEEP!
I really don't want to give up on this light, but I haven't had luck finding some place that could fabricate a custom shade for it. The glass is plain white frosted; the shade is (was) egg-shaped, about 12 inches tall and maybe nine inches at widest diameter.
Anyone have an idea whom I could contact? Price is not big issue. I have not been able to find another antique pendant similar to this one, and I love it. I'd be willing to ship the brass frame to a manufacturer so that the shade could be fitted to it.
Thanks Askme!
