You’ve finally institute the perfect lamp base, (and we all know a beatific lamp base is hard to find!), now, only the perfect lamp shade will suffice.  Size, shape and proportion need to be carefully considered, with colour and pick of fabric following near behind.

 

The alter & oldness Table Lamp Co produces a superb range of custom, hand made, classic lampshades with all sorts of treatments.  Soft or bonded, plain, gathered, ruffled, crosshatching, knife pleats, box pleats, crop pleats, pleats on pleats! in fact, just about any communication you can think of in voluptuous cloth or perhaps a pure Irish linen.

After a suitable look has been selected a touch of passementerie may be called for and now we really can go anywhere as the pick of beautiful trims, tassels and decorative finishes are almost limitless!  Passementerie has been used in one form or another for thousands of years so it has certainly stood the test of time and is just the trick when it comes to a style fix!

 

Once the correct trim has been painful over you may wish to complete the look with a finial.  Finials are the lampshade world’s “bling” for table lamps! and just same passimenterie, the activity is vast.

The pick may seem somewhat discouraging at first but an old shade maker, with the wealth of the textile world at her fingertips, should be healthy to make some smart suggestions.  The alter & oldness Table Lamp Co’s shade concern has been doing just this for many years and would be entertained to modify her ideas and expertise, so there really is no excuse now not to have the best clad lamp in town!
