16″ Snowball

At Century Studios, we occasionally get asked to create a pair of shades that will be displayed in the same space. Commissioned by a client in Michigan, we recently completed a pair of 16″ Snowball shades which will be installed as chandelier fixtures, hanging at different levels in a stairwell.

Snowball shades are a perfect choice for chandelier fixtures due to their depth and irregular lower edges. For this pair, we used a variety of mottled, streaky and textured glasses. The medium blue sky at the top of the shade blends into off whites, green, and rose tones to give the shades a natural color theme. The shade is shown on our new Artichoke Trumpet base.
