Lamp Shades For Table Lamps
Table lamps are a gorgeous accessory that can often add the finishing touch to any room. They come in a wide range of colors and styles to suit any décor. Whether you burnt or broke your old shade or simply found that it was getting a bit old, there are a lovely range of gorgeous table lamp shades to choose from.
There are a range of styles ranging from simple circular shades through to bell shaped, slanted and ribbed shades. Whatever style your after there is a lovely table lamp shade to suit your room.
Not only do lamps diffuse the light beautifully and create a soft ambience, often not found with normal indoor lights, but they also add a classic touch and fun talking point.
Plain and Single Color Tone Table Lamp Shades
Lamp shades were originally developed to cover the sharp light of the first electrical bulbs and diffuse the light in a way that would not hurt the eyes.
Since that time, lamp shades have become a unique and eye catching feature that is used more for centrepieces or decoration.
Easily removable and replaceable, lamp shades can be interchanged when you redecorate the room or simply when you wish to give the room a fresh look.
As you can see on the left, there are many types of lamp shades available in huge range of colors and styles to suit any room. My personal favourite is the Champagne shade, with deep gold tones.
Patterned and Decorated Table Lamp Shades
If you have a room that doesn't have a wide range of patterns or colors, a single decorated lamp shade might be the best answer.
There are classic styles such as flower patterns as well as striped, diagonally lined and beaded shades.
A beaded shade is a must for any room boasting timber furniture or antiques - the look is classic and gorgeous and provides a great centre piece.
No matter what style you are searching for, there is a table lamp shade available to match, ready to cover your bare globe and light your room in a way that is both decorative and stylish.
