Help me find the right shade for this lamp.
Comments (3)Black , oval and hardback with the gold or tortoise interior I agree. Sometimes they came with tole metal ones. If you look at Visual Comfort lighting they have some lamps like this. These lamps were meant to have shortish shades with the handle sticking out the top about like it is. Check out this link. They make custom shades and you can pick your shape and size. Here is a link that might be useful: The lampshade shop...See MoreHelp me find a lamp post?
Comments (14)Enigma, all that I know can go in a nutshell, sorry to say, BUT I HAVE IDEAS AND OPINIONS. hehehehe First off, if you are up north, do you have a lot of ROCK? In the case of my DH's house, you cannot dig anywhere w/o turning up ROCKS and some are huge. (We have NO ROCKS here, so I have serious ROCK ENVY, but no way to bring them south.) He put the power line in when he built that rock wall, so it was all underground. I'm not sure where your electrical panel might be located, but probably around the spot the overhead power cables come to your house--near your driveway and garage? The cost could run from getting a larger breaker box and power supply (old homes had 100 amp service, but most now have 200 amp service or greater, and that means a lot of work for your power company and fully licensed electrician. I'm all for solar too, like emagineer is. LEDs are the latest thing because the actual light emitted is greater. If those don't have the color you want, you can always filter the glass surrounding them! Put some cellophane inside the lamp if necessary. I'm still thinking you could get a Toro system which has a solar panel stuck into the flower bed, and then low voltage cable that can be concealed 4 inches or so underground for a string anywhere from 50 feet up to 150 feet. The cable can run up the middle of a metal pole to the lamp. OR, you can route a groove into a wooden lamp post and then use cable tacks to hold the low voltage cable in the groove as it runs up the wood post. In your neck of the woods, you don't have to worry about termites, but make any pole a treated wood. It can be painted white or black too. I think you can also just find the lamp you like and then wire it to 12 volt instead of house power, and put in the size of socket you like. Several years back, I had a really fine solar panel which I mounted on the roof of my cottage at MoccasinLanding. It ran to a fairly large storage battery, which I mounted onto a shelf underneath the carport. The battery was mostly out of the weather, Then from the storage battery, there was a 12 volt cable attached to a motion detector and spot light. This was very bright, and it only came on when it detected any motion within its coverage area....which was the walkway to my front door. With this setup, you could have a brighter bulb because it did not stay on all the time, just when someone was moving into your yard. In my case, this light was the only one working during several hurricanes that hit Mobile. What a comfort it was too. I think it cost about $75 including panel, battery, and light. The point I'm making, consider all the options open to you and which would maximize your investment....See MoreHelp me find a lamp for this Crate and Barrel driftwood side table

Check the height so you know it's tall enough if you go that route. Something about the glass one as I said makes it look less heavy more of an, "airy" feel for lack of a better word. Yet, they are both very nice....See Morehelp me find this lamp!
