ABOUT THESE BREATHTAKING ORIGINAL HANDSEWN VICTORIAN SHADES

All shades are one of a kind original heirloom quality designs by our very talented Victorian shade stylist, Kerri.

Care Instructions will be included with the shade. Typically, these shades are delicate in nature and will require light dusting with a small soft paintbrush. They also require that you try to keep them out of direct sunlight for lasting heirloom quality.

If you are interested in Kerri creating a complementing shade of the same design, please inquire as to the availability. Since every shade is an original, one of a kind, she would have to try to closely match the original for you, depending on the raw materials and embellishments she has on hand. When we get in touch with Kerri to determine this possibility, we also will make inquiry as to how long it would take her to complete the order. Once we reach a mutual agreement and decide to move forward, we will set up a Special Order for you. All Special Orders require a non refundable deposit or payment in full depending on the item considered.

It is lined in blue fabric for a soft blue glow of  "heaven" when lit.

The panels above and below the pleating have a cream rose lace on top of the blue lining again resembling clouds in the sky.
