Uno Lamp Shades

Buying Guide

Uno lamp shades are a type of shade that goes with the Uno shade adapter – no, it’s not a card game or a lamp shade with Uno cards printed on it. Although those would be pretty cool. Uno means “one” in Spanish, and that is what we have here. One adapter that will let you use a lot of different kinds of lamp shades and that will work on many different sorts of lamps.

The Uno lamp shade adapter fits on the lamp socket, just below the light bulb. If you’ve lost the lamp harp – that’s the technical term for the metal wire that holds up a lot of lamp shades – you can still use the lamp. That’s good news if you’ve got a favorite lamp base that you don’t want to get rid of. Uno shades holders are one of the three most common lamp shade fixtures and are commonly used on small to medium sized shades.

What lamp shade designs go with Uno adapters and how to style with them?

Simple White Conical Shade

Often used on bedside or end table lamps, the simple white conical shade blends well with most décor choices. It isn’t flashy, but it does a good job of shielding the bulb to prevent glare and diffuses the light, so it becomes a soft glow. It is an excellent choice for a candlestick or even for fat vase-style lamp bases.

Drum Barrel Lamp Shade

Drum barrel-shaped lamp shades come in a variety of sizes, but they all have one thing in common: a cylindrical shape with straight sides. Within those parameters, they can be attached to lamps with a variety of fittings, Uno in this case, and all do a good job of diffusing and softening the light from a bare light bulb.

Pleated Lamp Shade

Available in a variety of colors, the pleated lamp shade adds interest to simple conical or drum style lamp shade. The pleats are usually held in place by ribbon bands, one at the top and one at the bottom of the shade. The pleating breaks up the monotony of a modern or Mondrian room theme without creating a jarring interruption of style.

Elegant Bell Shades

Bell-shaped lamp shades are another way to lend style and grace to a restrained room decoration theme. The shade material can be plain, or it can have a pattern woven into it or printed on it. They can imitate a Tiffany lamp by having braid added to the seams, and perhaps even a fringe on the bottom of the shade.

Extra Fancy Touches

Printed designs are one way to add something extra to a lamp shade or painting a design onto the exterior. You can purchase painted shades or do them yourself. If going the DIY route, be sure to select non-flammable fabric paints. Woven-in patterns are another way to enliven a basic lamp shade shape. Bell-shaped shades are not the only ones that can have a trim of various sorts added on.
