Buying Guide

Almost every room in the house will need a lamp shade, and some rooms may require more than one. As a result, it's the perfect opportunity to go lamp shade shopping and choose all your favorites. One of the common types of lamp shade you may come across is the extra large lamp shade. This is, of course, related to the size, therefore leaving many options open in terms of the shape, colors, and styles. Here are some things you should consider before buying any extra large lamp shades.

A room which is around 12ft by 12ft should seek to have a lamp shade which is no larger than 24 inches in diameter. This is a good guide to use, and you can adjust the sizes according to the size of your room.

This is important to think about since a small room will not look great with a very large lamp shade. Extra large lamp shades should therefore be reserved for the larger rooms of your house. These often include the living room, master bedroom, and dining room. You can also use extra large lamp shades for lamps within the rooms, but again, the size of the room could mean that a lamp shade which is too big makes the room look even smaller.

When buying any lamp shade, it's important to look at how transparent or opaque the material is. You should therefore choose a lamp shade made from a material which provides adequate lighting - based on whether you intend to have a dimly lit room or a brightly lit room.

  • Glass: This is the best material for giving off plenty of light since it is completely transparent. You should be aware, however, that colored glass is less transparent and will dim the lighting slightly.
  • Fabric: A light colored fabric material is ideal for achieving lighting levels which are somewhere in between. It will not be too bright, but won't be too dim and low either. Choose a darker fabric if you want the room to be dimmer, but change to a lighter fabric for a brighter room.

It is also important to remember that the brightness of the room will often depend on the strength of the light bulb. Lamp shades will do little to dim a very bright light bulb, while no amount of transparency will brighten a dim light bulb.

Some people think that every lamp shade will fit every lamp, but it doesn't take more experimenting to find out that this isn't the case. You will come across universal lamp shades which have been designed to fit almost every lamp, but you will also find lamp shades which are sized more specifically.

As well as the actual size of the lamp shade fitting the lamp, you'll also need to check that the lamp shade isn't too heavy for your lamp and that it won't put any unnecessary pressure on the furniture.
