The 16″ Daffodil shade was designed without decorative border rows which gives the impression that the flowers are growing wild rather than in a formal garden. For this shade, we chose a sunny yellow background glass that deepens to an amber/green mix on the lower portion of the shade. The fresh green leaves and stems…
