Beautiful shades

I was reluctant to order lamp shades on line however, the shades I had used with my lamps were old and worn out. And frankly I never really liked them. To replace the shades I had shopped a high end speciality shop with no luck; needless to say I had already been to more popularly priced shops with no luck. The lamps are a favorite and I wanted something really special for shades. I decided to go on line as a last resort. Lampsusa was recommended and I decided to give a Quick Look. I am so happy I did. I read the information on the web site about choosing shades which I found helpful. After reading the material I felt a little more confident about ordering a relatively expensive product which had to go with and hopefully even enhance an object I already owned. I was not too certain I would be happy with the pleated shade but I did want/need a relatively large shades in eggshell. To be honest I was never wild about the shades that we had purchased for the lamps years ago and these are very different. I looked on line and could not find anything else that I really liked so I decided that of the available choices these shades were my best choice. My lamps are marble and brass and are tall and very heavy. I wanted a shade that would enhance the beauty of the lamps as well as not detract from the over all decor which I was beginning to think was mission impossible. I thought since the shades were returnable I had very little to loose and I wanted to continue to use the lamps. So I ordered the egg shell pleated shades. Never in my wildest imagination did I think they would not only be beautiful but that they would enhance the lamps. The shades with no bulb lite are very attractive but when the bulb is on they become something special. As I said the lamps are marble and brass. When the bulb is on a very thin gold line appears in the pleats. This is very very subtle but it helps to pull the lamp and shade together. The type of bulb makes a difference so experiment and see what effect other types of bulbs have. The shade is soft egg shell and the soft glow is very beautiful. I got the shades in perfect condition and actually a little sooner than I anticipated. I am thrilled I tried this web site. I had pretty much resigned myself to either not using the lamps or just finding a make do shade. I could not be happier with the product or the service. The shades are not cheap but tho me they provide value to my special lamps. I have another problem lamp and while it has a shade that “works” it doesn’t actually enhance the floor lamp. I so I will probably order a new shade for that lamp one day soon. I seldom give 5 star reviews and enthuse about mundane household objects but every time I see this lamp lit with this beautiful shade I want to do a happy dance.

A shady review

I ordered new lamp shades after my previous shades were damaged during a fall from the night stand. The shades arrived within a week, and in perfect condition. The shades look great, and I'm very happy with them! I will shop here again for the great selection and prices.
