There is little science and much art in fitting a lamp shade for any lamp. Lamp shade fitting formulas have been around for decades but they do not work. There are far too many variations of style, shape and size with a plethora of individual personal preferences. The number of combinations are staggering. Lamp shade fitting formulas are misleading and end in failure.

Below are some helpful pointers.
Lampshade bottom width is the most important measurement with the strongest visual impact.

• 3-6" Bottom Width - Fits chandeliers and petite wall sconces
• 8-10" Bottom Width - Fits very small boudoir size lamps and small wall sconces
• 10-12" Bottom Width - Fits buffet candlestick lamps and medium size wall lamps
• 13-14" Bottom Width - Fits small - medium table and floor lamps & swing arm lamps
• 15-16" Bottom Width - World's most popular lamp shade size fits most average size table & floor lamps
• 17-19" Bottom Width - Fits full size table and floor lamps
• 20-24" Bottom Width - Fits larger and wider body lamps
