Our Mica Lampshades use a centuries-old technique of laminating mica flakes and crystals together with shellac or resin. These naturally occurring minerals come in various colors. They are known for being heat-resistant and non-conductive, making them perfect for use in lighting. Once made, these mica sheets are carefully wrapped around a rust-resistant, brown metal frame, with the top, bottom, and sides bound in dark brown braided trim. The braid displays a faux leather appearance.

Install: Mica Uno Lamp Shade on Bridge Lamp

Bridge lampshades are used on lamps where shade hangs down from a lamp-arm. 

• Lamp shade has a 1-1/4" uno threaded ring at top center of shade.
• To use: the lamp must have a socket with uno threads on light bulb end of socket.
• Lamp shade attaches to lamp by screwing the threaded ring in shade top directly onto lamp socket. 
• Socket-switch is at top of shade for easy access.
• For positioning of lamp shade, add a socket swivel between lamp and socket to enable positioning of shade so that light can be directed to best angle for task lighting.

Compatibility between UNO threads on lamp-shade and lamp-socket

• Uno-threads, on new and old lamp sockets, can vary slightly.
• Most sockets and shades will thread together, however occasionally the threading on some sockets is not compatible.
• To insure compatibility, between threads on uno lamp shade and threads on. uno socket, it is best to purchase socket and lamp shade together.
