The tapered, pleated fabric shade is finished in a pale mint green colourway. Fitted with a white electrical cord and a British standard three-pin plug. The underside of the base features a blue printed mark under glaze comprising a copyright symbol followed by the text by W. Goebel over W. Germany next to a stylized large V containing a small bird device. The base also displays incised numerals including 226/I.
