The 16″ Snowball shade takes its inspiration from the Snowball Viburnum plant. The shade is covered in flower clusters and has an irregular lower edge, giving the piece a naturalistic look. For this shade, our client requested off white/cream colored flower clusters set against a strong blue sky.

Each flower head on the plant is composed of many small flowers so a variety of ring mottled and textured glasses were blended together to give the shade a natural look.

Created for a client in Canada, the shade was made to be used as a floor lamp on the Petit Floor Base (54″ tall). We are also showing the shade as a table lamp on the Grooved base (26″ tall).
