Welcome to uniquelampshades.info, a site dedicated to helping you find some of the most unique and sometimes hard to find lamp shades available online on the internet. Please take a look at some of the posts on the menu at right. Each post groups similar items together to help make comparing the various items easier.
What feature or characteristics make a lamp shade unique? It can be a number of different things. The shade can be an unusual color or colors, e.g. not the typical white or light brown neutral colors so common in lamp shades. Lots of different and interesting colors of lampshade are available such as pink, green, or purple lamp shades, and pages covering some of those are included in this site.
Unique lamp shades can also be defined by an unusual shape. One of the most common shapes for lamp shades is the coolie lamp shade. For something unique, perhaps try a bell shape, square, drum, or an oval lamp shade. Some of the posts on this site are focused on particular lamp shade shapes. They can also be made of unusual materials, and can have unusual and unique artistic images, patterns, or trims on them.
For a lamp shade to be unique it shouldn't be too common. It doesn't have to be a one of a kind, custom lamp shade, but not something you see in mid range hotel rooms either. Perhaps most importantly, it needs to fit the particular style you have in mind, the style of lamp, and the room you envision the shade and lamp going in, and the particular placement in that room.
What are some other things to keep in mind when selecting your unique lamp shade? Well, the maximum light wattage that can be used with a particular shade is an important limit for the shade. The bulb size (e.g. a medium base bulb) that the shade is meant to fit on should also be kept in mind. Finally, the height and width of the lamp shade should approriately match the lamp the shade will go on.
Glad you visited this site, and hope you found the item you were looking for.
