Replacing Harp-type Lamp Shades

This shade type is built on a wire frame with a three wire spider and centered ring washer near the top of the shade. The washer ring slips down onto a harp, 1/8 IP pipe or cluster stem and is held in place with a lamp finial. 

Replacement Guidelines

• Measure Height of Lamp-base: distance from bottom of lamp base to base of lamp socket.
• Height of Lamp Shade: approximately 2/3rds height of lamp-base.
• Bottom-diameter of Lamp Shade: approximately 1”-2” less than lamp-base height. Bottom diameter should not exceed lamp-base height. 

• For Safety: there should be a minimum of 3-1/2” between lamp shade and incandescent bulb unless using compact fluorescent bulbs.
• These are generalizations.........it is always best to let your personal taste be the guiding influence.
• Additional Replacement Lamp Shade Information

Replacing a Table Lamp Shade on any lamp:

• The bottom edge of the lamp shade should cover the socket but not the lamp base.
• Determining the correct lamp shade position is best accomplished by viewing the lamp on the surface on which it will be permanently placed. Perspective changes when a lamp is place high on a mantel verses lower on a table.
• Although a table lamp shade is used on lamp pipe and cluster stems the vast majority are used with a harp.
• The advantage of harps is the ability to readily switch to different heights providing easy vertical adjustment.
