| more Shade Risers and Extensions |
The overall look of a lamp is determined by the balance between the lamp-base and lamp-shade. This Adjustable Lampshade Extension provides an easy solution for some lamps as it enables adjustable support for harp-type lamp shades. It can be added to most lamps without rewiring. Adjustment range is 2-1/2" - 6".
It is used on lamps that do-not have a harp. This extension has a male base with a standard 1/8IP lamp thread. It screws into a 1/8IP threaded opening that is 3/8" diameter. It is often used with lamp-socket-clusters.
