I want to remove the shade and just run a flicker bulb in this so it is more candle-like. Would this look okay or is there something ugly under there?

Rather an interesting thought...one of which may look rather nice in a dimly lit room. The white socket tube is three inches long which gives a nice candle appearance. The black finish is "flat black" which adds to the overall look. The only thing that may be of concern to you is that the base of the bulb will be even with the top of the wall plate which will mean that the top of the bulb will be approximately two or so inches above it. Hope this helps. George

Well there is plastic tube that looks "porcelain like' that stems up with the bulb socket on the end. You can not see in the picture of the light, but at the end of this tube concealed from view by the shade there is a wrap around sticker that is 1-3/8" wide that tells you all the electrical info such as max wattage bulb etc. So my answer would be yes that would take away from the effect you are trying to achieve.

These are a very normal looking bulbs both when on and off. Orientation, housing design, and bulb visibility should not be an issue. Other bulbs like the Philips Slim Style LED bulbs are flat and just look weird when the bulb is visible, or the orientation of the fixture threads aren't just perfect. (You don't want to see that slim bulb from the side in your vanity fixture!)

No, all you get is what you see, the lamp shade. The rest of the lamp, should have the framework that you will have to unscrew and place. I believe I had to Google information on putting it back together and it brought up pictures of how to do it. Mine was tight fitting but with a little patience and prayer I got it back together. Hope this helps. Ann D

It is over our kitchen table and looks great...BUT...even with a dimmer switch attached we find it too glary. I've been trying to find some sort of shield or baffle to block the direct light but haven't had any luck online. All the ones I've found are for light bulbs that face up or down, while these are horizontal.

There would be a small space that is unfinished in the 'shaft' of the fixture where they shade wraps on. I would notice it and be bothered by it.

I know what you mean, and I mentioned the built-in night light in my review of this fan. I'm sure you could rip off the covering and cut/destroy the LED, but I just put a couple layers of blue masking tape over the lights. It does not look great, but it works. You could take the same idea and user nicer materials and cut them to shape if you were so inclined.

We put large globe shaped 110W bulbs in them because we liked the look. They could take LEDs or compact fluorescent, but the bulb might be way up in the neck. If i were using a small bulb i would probably use an extension to get it down to the edge of the shade. They are nice shades.

Changing the lamp shade would be easy but I don't know anything about changing the actual light fixure. The 60 watt bulb puts out sufficient light in the kitchen as long as you have other light sources.

The lights can be bright on this chandelier depending upon the wattage you use for your bulbs, we installed a dimmer switch so we can adjust the light. As far as the installation goes my husband installed ours without a problem but he is very good with electrical issues, I personally would not have been able to do it based on the bulkiness of the chandelier, and yes this is an electrical chandelier not candle operated :) It's a really pretty chandelier & every time someone new comes to our home they compliment the beauty of it. Enjoy & good luck to you!

It's okay, it does throw off a design on your ceiling from the scrolls on the shade. I think you would need additional task lighting on your desk as well. The fixture is beautiful!

No, the heat from the bulbs is dissipated through the screen. It would be a fire hazard if removed.

I agree - possible, but looks strange. Just get a halOgen lamp if you want it to point up.

Hi Irene, thanks for the question. This lampshade widens out from the top-->down and should be fine with your double light fixture. The only thing we'd recommend is not to use heavy wattage, or even LEDs because they might burn the shade from overheating. We hope this helps. If you need anything else Irene, please reach out to one of our awesome experts! Not only do they know everything, but they're literally sitting right next to their phones right now :)Hansen Wholesale1-800-201-1193

it's a little black knob under the shade, up near the bulb. It may have come out during shipping. Check the box for a black knob in that case, and just reattach it.

Hi. First of all I think I had the lamp shade upside down. The light bulb was showing. My husband turned the lamp shade over and the light bulb doesn 't shoe but now the lampshade wobbles. I have to take time to figure it out. I love the lamp but it 's just not right

Yes, I used them on a light that looks like a candle. They are far more superior than what you would find in the stores. I was really surprised how elegant they are. The shade has a nice shape, not just a straight up and down look.

Yes, to both questions. It's a big bulb, though, and it might be too big for a ceiling fan. Also, it's not a "pretty" bulb, so if the light fixture is downward-facing, it might not look good. Regarding mixing bulbs, that's no problem at all. I do that all the time in my fixtures.
