JUST SOLD - Extraordinary Black Iridescent Fostoria Zipper Shade

In 25 years dealing glass I’ve never seen this black zigzag zipper decoration before. Several collectors have identified the shade as produced by the Fostoria Glass Specialty Co. The, but none of the collectors have been able to produce any references so could possibly be Quezal or Steuben.

The shade is cased in white and the 2 1/4” fitter is fire polished and the interior iridescent gold finish is an apricot color reminiscent of early Steuben. I have a pair of these available.

Unsigned, c. 1910, 5 1/2’ High x 5” Diameter with a 2 1/4” Fitter

Excellent Condition withs some minor discoloration of gold just inside the rim. No chips, cracks, fleabites, repairs or other post production defects.
