the frame must first be wound with

winding enables one to stretch the silk
tightly over the frame. The shade
should consist of an outer covering, q
possible interlining and lining. Either
lining or interlining should be OF
warm color.
The shade, II of fabric, may be made
OF brocnde or even velvet cut to fiji

plain silk or chiffon, gathered or pleated
The finish may be n gold or silk braid,
