This is a vintage milk glass hurricane lamp shade in a bell shape. The body is thick, opaque white glass with a crimped, scalloped top edge. The ruffled rim has a gradient amber-caramel tint.
The front has a hand-painted or transferred autumn floral medallion. It shows amber-brown wild blossoms and soft green leaves inside a golden-yellow beaded laurel wreath. The style is mid-century Early American Revival, circa 1970s.
It stands about 6 inches tall and can replace the shade on a student parlor lamp, a vintage ceiling fan or an antique oil lantern.
