DESIGN FOR A LAMP SHADE OR REFLECTOR.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 32,686, dated May 22, 1900. Application filed March 81, 1900. Serial No. 11,028. Term of patent '7 years.

To aZZ whom, it 71mg concern:

Be it known that I, OTIS A. MYGATT, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Design for a Lamp Shade or Reflector, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.

My design consists in a new and original shape or configuration of an article of manufacture known as a reflector or shade for an artificial light, and in a new and original ornament or form of ornamentation of such a manufacture.

This design is illustrated in Figure l by a side elevation, in Fig. 2 by a plan, and in Fig. 3 by a cross-section of the shade, on lines a w of Fig. 2.

As shown in the drawings, the shape or configuration of my design is in general that of a segment of a spheroid A with a central opening, above which is a circular collar or tube B with an opening therein. The lower or inside face of the reflector or shade is smooth. The upper surface has prismatic ribs, as indicated at C, such ribs constituting surface ornamentation and extending from near the edge toward the center of the shade.

The material of which this shade is composed is translucent, such as glass.

The shade or reflector is intended to be suspended slightly above an artificial light or lamp, and the light-rays rising from the light pass through the transparent material and are reflected or refracted by the prismatic ribs on the upper surface thereof, producing an ornamental and useful distribution of the light-rays which pass through and also the rays which are reflected from the shade or reflector.

Having described my invention, what I claim as new is- The design fora lamp shade or reflector, as herein shown and described.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
