If you look up cut and pierced lamp shades on the internet there are several
companies selling it.
I'm sure I have seen it at Upper Canada Village (museum village set in the
era of 1867). It let a little more light through and made the lamp shade
attractive too. I have also seen recent kits to make them, but don't
remember exactly where - perhaps at the museum or through an adult education
class.

There is no "cut out" - the paper of which the shade is made was not
removed,
but bent in slightly at the cuts to allow the light to travel thru
differently to show off the handiwork.
Does anyone know the proper name for this technique? Or have any
additional clues about it?
