Description
This unusual set of four antique candle shield shades have metal frames with a clip which would have attached to a candle or light fitting. The shades are made from cardboard with printed inset illustrations featuring various scenes (all are different) and hand-painted decoration. The clips are marked 'G.M.' with further lettering we have been unable to identifty. We would estimate the shades to date from the second half of the nineteenth century, although they could be earlier.
