2-1/4" Fitter Shades

The advent of Edison's carbon filament bulb in 1879 not only introduced a new source of electric light to America, it spurred the demand for smaller glass shades.

2 1/4" fitter shades quickly became the choice for diffusing this bright source of light, and they are our most popular shade size today.

Choose from dozens of authentic shapes and sizes, such as Arts & Crafts Dome-style Shades, handmade Art Glass Shades, vibrant Painted Shades, prismatic Holophane-style Shades, and classic Cone Shades in various colors.
