retro lampshade on vintage tripod lamp
color: cream
black diamond design
size: XL (18″ diameter)
Vintage camera and surveying tripod floor lamps are a classic home-made lamp design. A drum or tiered fiberglass shade gives the lamp period authenticity. These large lamp bases usually require a large shade; in our experience, our 18″ XL drum or tiered shades work best on the tripod lamp style. We make these shades in any color/pattern combination.

I have a very large tripod surveyor’s lamp. Currently, its shade is 30 inches in diameter at the base, and 8 inches at the top (cone shaped). I would love to replace it with this lampshade. I feel the 18 inch would be way too small. What is the largest you can make?-
We also make 21″ and 24″ diameter shades. You can also increase the volume of the shade by increasing its height.
