The dome-shaped body is equipped with a metal hanging chain and three bulb sockets; its lower rim features a scalloped outline decorated with raised ornament and gilding along the edge. The surface of the shade is adorned with a picturesque polychrome composition depicting blue irises, green stems, and cream-colored leaves of Virginia creeper. The top of the dome is surmounted by an applied sculptural element in the form of a full bow made of a dark blue ribbon with gold ornamental painting.
