The future was so bright they had to have wild shades (Status: fiberglass-a-rific)

When I walked in the door of the Hilliard Goodwill, I could see this Majestic table lamp glowing like a beacon from across the room.

I grabbed a shopping cart and was prepared to use it as a plow if anyone got in my way!

When I got home I spent about three hours surfing eBay, Etsy and Google trying to find a similar shade but this appears to be the great white whale of fiberglass lampshades.

Holy cow,  just look at that sucker!  I’m going to say that this shade is supposed to look like a flower, perhaps a lotus flower.

I’m pretty certain that this lamp was made by the Majestic lamp company; they were known for their abstract shapes, often dynamic designs and exuberant fiberglass shades.

I am having a tough time deciding if I’m going to put this shade and lamp up for sale, The pink and gold flecked base would seem more appropriate in a ladies bedroom (or a pink bathroom), or if this is a keeper.
