What are Lamp Shades?
A lampshade is a fixture that covers the lightbulb on a lamp to diffuse the light it emits. Lampshades can be made out of a wide variety of materials like paper, glass, fabric, or stone. Usually conical or cylindrical in shape, lampshades can be found on the floor, desks, tabletop, or suspended lamps.

What are the 3 types of lampshades?
The three most common types of lampshade assemblies are Spider, Uno, and Clip-on (see diagram). The Spider or Standard assembly is the most conventional, consisting of multiple spokes positioned at the top of the shade that meet at a central point that attaches to the harp.
How do I choose the right lampshade?
The shade should be twice as wide as the lamp base, and one third of the total height of the lamp. So for a 6-inch lamp base, the shade should be at least 12 inches wide. And if the total height of the lamp (including the bulb and harp) is 24 inches, the shade should be 8 inches tall.
Which lamp do shades give the most light?
White shades are best at lighting an entire room, while darker ones tend to funnel the light and make a more dramatic statement. When it comes to fabric, follow the generally accepted truths that silk is more formal than linen, textured materials, or parchment shades.
