    I have 9 frosted glass Victorian Style light shades and brass fitter rings. They were bought at an auction in Schuylkill County, PA. They likely came from one of the elegant homes or establishments built in this area during the booming anthracite coal mining era.
    They are marked “Germany” near the fitter opening. Some smoke residue on some of the shades suggests they were on gas light fixture(s).
    I would appreciate any information about these shades including their age, maker, type of fixture application etc.
