AIBU to hope to get a lampshade just like this?

Had it for 10 years and can't remember for the life of me where I bought it from.

Unfortunately met with an indoor football accident today and I’ve spent the rest of the evening trying to find a replacement that I can afford.

Any idea where I could get one from? I think it might come under the art deco sizing as it's 35cm at the lowest, 30 at the top and length 25cm.

I particularly like the slightly parchment paper look to it and the dulled gold is a nice trim. Sigh. Bloody football!

You can filter by shape or material so should be easy to browse.

Looks very similar to the Laura Ashley Bacall shape, if this helps at all

Crossing my fingers for you!

I have a lamp that was left from the previous owner. If I had to guess I’d say 1960’s … my cat tore up the inside liner in a failed attempt to capture a fly. I’m thinking my only option is to remove the rest of the liner and maybe reline with linen or muslin? Need to figure out if it would be safe from the heat before I do.

Can someone recover it for you?

We had a very similar one that I bought from John Lewis. It was way back though. I used to have it on this lamp base that was a 70s one my parents gave us. Its original mid century shade was orange as I recall, very Abigail’s Party. Now I have this linen one on it, but am not entirely sure it works. It was a cheapy from B and M

Thank you all for your commiserations and helpful suggestions. I managed to get a suitably cheap replacement and it looks okay.
