Cracked Yellow-gold lampshade

cracked yellow shade

This was my biggest lampshade, and the colors turned out mottled because they interacted with each other chemically.  Unfortunately, I think I got a drop of water on the base of it when I was getting it off the puntie, as when it came out of the annealer it had two huge cracks on either side.  I’ll probably use it as a practice piece when I drill holes in the bottom for the electrical cords.
