Have large revolutionary war motif painted porcelain jug with parchment? hand decorated lampshade. Been in family at least since 1950.
The folded over paper tape that holds the shade itself to the top wire circle has disintegrated and I can find no source for the tape itself (dark brown) or anyone who would do the repair. Have searched the web, called all area conservators, no luck. Currently holding shade up with three loops of monofilament fishing line around wire and shade. Shade itself is in perfect condition.
Am in upstate NY but would ship for repair.
Any help greatly appreciated as this piece was prominent in my parents living room.
