Lamp shade holder for a 3″ rim glass lamp shade

Lamp Shade Holders are also known as a Lamp Shade Galleries. These lamp shade parts are for use with glass lamp shades that have a 3″ rim. The gallery screws are tightened under the light shade rim to hold the glass shade in place. The gallery is then attached to a Bayonet Cap or Edison Screw Lamp holder using the two shade rings on the Lampholder either side of the gallery centre hole. Either a hooked lamp holder or cord grip lampholder can be used depending on the weight of your shade.

The 10mm version can be used with a 10mm metal hook or cord grip with a cord grip lampholder suspended inside the shade.

These galleries are made in the UK from pierced solid brass with 3 matching gallery screws.
