Notes from the bench
A superb reproduction made from original antique shade of Victorian period.
Shade is beautifully etched with butterflies and flowers.
The gallery fit is 4", height 7" with a diameter at its widest point of 7.5"
The flowing contours of the beehive shape produces glorious light patterns when lit, and if desired a different atmosphere can be generated by simply changing over to another colour in the Butterfly Beehive range.
The Oil Lamp Company "Butterfly Beehive Range" presents a series of 6 beautifully coloured etched shades suitable for all standard duplex 4" galleries.
Note: Occasional bubbles, specks and ripples within the surface sometimes exist in hand blown or handcrafted glass. These reflect the individuality of these hand made items.

I've been buying antique lighting components for fifteen years. This arrived exactly as described — no surprises, no euphemistic condition language. The bench test note sealed it for me.
Everything about this purchase felt intentional and honest — the listing copy, the packing, even the receipt. The piece itself is excellent. Will be back for more.
Very happy with the purchase overall. There's a small patch of surface oxidation on the back face that wasn't visible in the listing images. Not a deal-breaker at all, but I'd appreciate a note. Everything else is exactly right.
