LIGHTS BEING USED THROUGH SEVERAL LAMPS AND ITS USEFUL SHADES


In modern days, the decoration for a home is incomplete without light fixtures. Stained glass lampshades find a unique place. Stained glass lamp shades are available in a variety of colours, designs and materials. Ceiling fixtures flushed or semi-flushed ones, wall scores, chandeliers, globes, billiard lamps, pendant lamps are some of the varieties of stained glass lamp shades available. Table lamps are also available, wherein the bases are generally made up of brass, bronze, wrought iron, or wood. To get the best overall results, one must have one focal light fixture in a large or medium size room with these kinds of lampshades. The making of a stained glass lampshades involve extraordinary craftsmanship. The Craftsman must join the pieces, which should be extremely fine. This piece of craft is extremely unique, because each piece is different and makes it exclusive too. This procedure makes the lampshade look as authentic as possible.


Map shades are designed in various patterns. It can have the design of a flower, fruit, leaves, birds or any geometric patterns. Similarly, a range of colours can be used for getting the scintillating effect. Often, two or three colours are used at a time so that when it is fitted, it blends with the other home decorations. In order to create different textures or difference in textures, clear glass rippled, mottled glasses and beveled glasses are used. For example, the wings of a butterfly need to be more luminous. So, this requires thin glass. The body of the butterfly requires thicker glass.


While selecting a stained glass lamp shade, one must insist on having the provision to connect it to a power point. Flaw or cracks if any, can be detected only when light streams through it.


Another thing, that one has to keep in mind while selecting a lamp shade is the purpose of lamp. For the purpose of reading, they require shades with light or pastel colour glass. Similarly, the size of the lamp shade must be proportionate with the size of the room. The lamp shade must not get lost in a large room.
