(Feel free to contact me if a size is out of stock)
-------------------------------------------------------------
This lampshade is made of rigid heat-resistant material.

It has a standard European fitter and it's sold with a reducer ring so it can be used with E14 and E27 lamp bases.

- THE LAMP BASE IS NOT INCLUDED -
If you are in a country that operates on 220-240 Volts, you’ll be able to add one to your order by clicking here: https://www.etsy.com/SpookyShades/listing/538867251/reserved-listing?

If you are in the US or in Canada, European lamp bases can be found easily in stores like Ikea, Pottery Barn, Walmart and Target.
(For instance: Ikea’s Hemma, Rodd, Ekarp and Gothem are affordable and 100% compatible).

If you need more help or want to use the lampshade with a harp lamp base, please read the paragraph below. :)
-------------------------------------------------------------
TECHNICAL INFORMATION:

The European fitter is similar to the American Uno fitter (slips directly on to the lamp socket, below the light bulb) except the inner diameter is 42 mm (1 9/16")
This fitting usually requires E26 or E27 bulbs.
With the reducer ring on, the inner diameter is 29 mm (1 9/64”).

You can see how it looks on pictures #6 & 7.

This very helpful video will help you understand the differences between fitters and how to turn an American Harp system into a European fitter: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVDO2P_B0hs
As you can see in the video, the easiest way to adapt it is to remove the harp and put the shade directly on the base.

If you‘d rather use your base with the harp, because there’s an accessory on the top for instance, please choose the “Ceiling” option in the “STYLE” variations. This way the fitter will be 3 cm/ 1.18 inches from the top, instead of being at the bottom and you’ll be able to secure it easily with 2 washers as explained in the video. ;)

Feel free to contact me before making your purchase if you have any additional questions. :)
