Out of the Ordinary

Lampshade; leather!

IMG_4919 Have never seen such a lampshade before.  Could get no history on it – the garage sale was a school donation event. 

 I tried it on this lamp but I prefer the black screen.

It intrigues me.  I googled but could not find anything like it to give an idea of when or how it was made.  Lewiscraft came to mind,  a kit.  ?   Popular Mechanics. ?  Walmart.  ?  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IMG_4920 It is too uniform to be an artistic expression. Hmmm.

  2. What a neat idea. I love Apartment Therapy! Any suggestions as to where I can look to get some idea on the leather shade; keep this in mind in your extensive Web browsing, please.
