Our lampshades are available in many different sizes so that they can be used in all situations, here are some guidelines to help you decide what size you require
The lampshade business uses the longest 'diameter' of a shade base as it's size
Table Lamps As a general guide the height of the table lamp to the bulb holder equals the size of the shade
Candle shades Available in several shapes with base diameter size ranging from 4" - 51/2", these shades have a clip fitting which fits directly onto the light bulb. Suitable for wall lights and in multiples for ceiling fittings and chandeliers
Small Table Lamps These will take a size 8" 10" or 12" shade and may be used as bedside lamps or television tops
Medium Table Lamps These will take a size 12" 14" 16" depending on height and can be used as bedside lamps or on tables in a sitting room
Large Table Lamps Depending on height these lamps will take a 16" 18" or 20" shade and are used in larger rooms and hotels
Standard Lamps These are free standing floor lamps, ranging in height from 4ft to 6ft and will take one of our 22" lampshades
Ceiling Pendants We offer a variety of styles that can be adapted to hang from a ceiling, most popular in sitting rooms and bedrooms
An average bedroom would need a 14" size, with a smaller room requiring a smaller shade and a larger room requiring a 16"

We also supply lampshades that can hang low as a feature over a dining table, a 16" or 18" is usually suitable
American & Continental Fittings We are able to supply adaptors with our lampshades which will convert them to be used on bases which have American or Continental fittings
