Allow our simple guide to take you through the whole process of buying a vintage lamp shade. Our tips will help you choose the color, fabric, and style that is right for you and your space.
Shape
In general, the shape of a shade follows a lamp's contour. Although it's not a fixed rule, it holds true most of the time. For instance, the base is oval with curves; the best Victorian shade shape for you is oval with curves. For a straight base, the Victorian shade that's best paired with it is one that has lots of edges and angles.
For bottom-heavy Victorian lamps, they can appear lighter if you add cone-shaped Victorian shades on top. Square lamps, on the other hand, can take square Victorian lamp shades; while round bases take round shades.
Details
When shopping for a Victorian beaded lamp shade, you need to factor in the details of the shade.
Color
Victorian shades can be white or colored. If you want to let most of the light go through your shade, then you'll be better off with a shade that has a light color. It'll be best at illuminating the entire room.
Colored shades direct light down, which can be useful when you are adding pools of light and drama to a room. A colored Victorian lamp shade is great if you're after a piece that's sophisticated. You can match different shade colors within a space if are adventurous and you want visual excitement. The one thing that you should remember is to NEVER blend a shade's color to wall treatments in the background.
Proportion
Sit the shade right next to the base you will be using. The shade that's best for you is the one that is shorter than the base. A shade that's of the proper height only shows an inch of your lamp's neck. Avoid choosing the shade that won't cover the underpinnings of a socket.
Remember, when your lamp base is decorative, a plain shade will work best. If the base is not detailed, a splashier and fancier shade will be the better option.
