Vintage Red and White Capiz Shell Ceiling Lampshade

£95.00

Great 1980s brass-framed Capiz shell hanging ceiling lampshade.

This lampshade is in good condition. The naturally coloured capiz shell sits alongside the dark red ombre flower design at the bottom edge. It has a thin brass detail which holds each section together.

This will look stunning as the light casts its shadows across the room.

Capiz comes from the shell of the Placuna placenta mollusc, which is native to the seas of Southeast Asia, specifically Indonesia and the Philippines. The molluscs are edible, which means fishermen can harvest them for their meat and reduce waste by reusing their shells for décor and handicrafts.
