I know this does not fit with what the Op's family history says but we know that is sometimes unreliable. Were it not for the <i>crown</i>, I could buy this being even older. Would be happy to find it is older and to be proven wrong. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, the ceiling cap is consistent with a 50s or later time-frame, though it may not be original to the shade.
