Upgradelights Lamp Shade

This shade uses a washer fitter, which is designed to sit on top of a standard lamp harp and be secured by a finial. It is compatible with most traditional table and floor lamps that utilize this harp-and-finial assembly.

The natural linen fabric acts as a soft diffuser, filtering the light to create a warm, ambient glow rather than a harsh, direct beam. It is an excellent choice if you want to soften the lighting in a living room or bedroom.

No, the hardback lining is designed to provide structure and durability to the shade without compromising its aesthetic. When the lamp is lit, the lining helps maintain the shade's shape and ensures the light is evenly distributed through the linen exterior.

The scalloped edge is purely decorative and does not affect the fit of the shade. As long as your lamp base uses a standard harp and finial system, the 16-inch bottom diameter will provide a balanced, traditional look.

A good rule of thumb is that the shade's bottom diameter should be roughly equal to the height of the lamp base, and the shade itself should cover the lamp's socket and harp hardware completely. With a 16-inch bottom diameter and 11-inch height, this shade is best suited for medium-to-large table lamps or floor lamps.
