Can the lamp be used without the shades? I'm looking at buying edison bulb (replica) and just showcasing the bulbs with these interesting wall lamps.

Yes. The lamp shade does not have to be used. An interesting or different light bulb should work well.

It appears so. Not sure how it would look, but the shades come off easily and the plastic nut that secures it is also dark colored.

Yes, the shades are installed separately. But I am not sure if this fixture will work with your shades. Depends on the bulb opening, I guess.

It depends on where you were going to use it. If its the only light source in a large room then maybe not enough. Ours is abouve our bed and its enough. Without the shade im sure it would look fine with the right bulb.

Could be used without the shade. It would kind of look like a small chandelier on a pole. There doesn't seem to be a way to post a pic.

I don't really know because I didn't use any shades and it looks great without them! :)

You can not use the shade with a standard light bulb but it would be ok otherwise.

Yes, but I left mine on because it's *really* hard to find a shade that is a good size/color to go with the lamp. (I've tried!)

Yes. The only problem you would have regarding a shade is diminished light. But the bulb is plenty bright. Don't use a shade that gets too close to the metal part because it does get hot

I think so. For 25$ I would give it try. I have one bulb without shade. Other is with shade. I usually sit by unshaded bulb. Also Bulbs are very bright they make the room feel nice. I have one in bathroom that one helps with my contact lens every morning. Good luck. If they don't help please seek professional help. It is not worth living in funk all the time.

Hello Jack, I was wondering the exact same thing. Did you get an answer? Do they have a table top lamp with this shade?

No..I tried but it's all attached where the light bulb goes. It's also kinda flimsy not my favorite part of this lamp. Also the lighting is very dim/low, its for decor purposes only not lighting.

i don't believe it would be wise to remove shade because the led light is attached inside , however since i have 2 i'mm going to use "pebeo"paint from hobby lobby (you can request a leaflet describing this technique from them

The bulb is part of the whole lamp and cannot be replaced. So, the whole lamp must be replaced. BUT I LOVE my lamps !!! I have one on either side of my bed and highly recommend them. The light is bright and all you could ask for.

I actually think that wouldn't look bad at all...i love my light..if you need more light you may need to get LED bulbs as the Edison style is not very bright.

i would just use it with the ceiling socket....you may be able to use it with no shade but it would have to be very stable. you can't use it with anything that would have a tendency to be moved because it is very sensitive and would likely break if used improperly.

I haven't had to do this yet, but figured that when/if I need to replace one I'll go to someplace like JoAnn Fabrics. They sell the lamps there. I would think they might carry the bulbs.
