I made this pair of oyster shell lamps several years ago and have since sold several pairs to decorators and even a restaurant in Manhattan Beach.
They used to have drum shades and sat directly upon this McGuire table until recently I decided they could use a little upgrade.
I procured these round brass Asian bases from my local lamp shop,
found a pair of pagoda style silk lampshades at a thrift store,
and crafted a pair of lamp finials from a pair of tiny Quan Yin Blanc de Chine figurines.
Et voila!
Quick Change
One that I'm liking a lot!

Hello Terri
These lambs are works of art and now even more sophisticated since you exchanged the shade and the finials are a wonderful finishing touch]Helen
oh i'm in love with these lamps! how divine!
Love these lamps!! But one thing you didn't mention, did you have to eat all the oysters?? I hate to throw away oyster shells in France; if you need more I can send you a box....we missed you this weekend! XXOO
Those are fantastic!! All the details added such panache to them!!
