I am looking for a shade that I can clip-on to a ceiling fixture bulb- "upside down" if you can picture what I mean- would this work?

It would work to attach a fabric, paper or plastic shade like those you would use on a table lamp.

This is simply a shade with a clip, which fits over the bulb in a ceiling light fixture. You would have to install a simple overhead light fixture.

Never thought to try it, but I just did, and yes, you can. It does look a little odd that way, like an upside down funnel. I assume you mean the head of the lamp (and that's what I pointed toward the ceiling in my test), but you can adjust the angles at each of the joints to your wishes.

Yes. I previously said I did not know, but since then I have figured out that I had the shade upside down. Now that I have installed it correctly, the lamp is 9.5 inches and a delighte.

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

I am using one that way, hanging down from the ceiling with a clip-on shade. ... for several months, now. No problems.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but these shade have a wire clip on thing that goes directly on a standard light bulb so if this lantern or lanterns are regular light bulbs, I imagine it'll work okay.

Since the shade is designed to fit a regular light bulb, I doubt that it will work on a "curly" CFL

I wouldn't it's not really made for that. I don't think the lamp shade would turn all the way for that ;) .... But it is a great lamp

I used this shade for an older style floor lamp. So far it just sits on the top of the center globe, there's no way to attach it securely. I am still trying to figure out a way to keep it attached. I like the style, but there is no way to keep it on tightly. I would think that it would attach to a harp style lamp. I thought the info when I purchased the shade was misleading. I like the look of it and so I am on a mission to figure out how to attach it. Good luck to you.

No, it can't be reversed. The fancy alabaster light shades just sit on the top ring of the fixture, unsecured. I've had one slip out and break already. This fixture has a nice style, but I would say a poor design.

It doesn't fit directly on the bulb. If you google "parts of a lampshade", you'll see a what is called a harp............three spokes that meet in the middle and are secured to the "harp".I LOVE this shade - I'm not sure that it is the shade for a chandelier? Good luck! Betty

I mounted both the two lite and three lite upside as pictured. I thought the description said they can be mounted downward. The glass shade is secured with an inner ring, hence no reason to contradict the description.Chance is good that you will be forced to mount upside due to possible interference with a vanity mirror below it and if using the existing fixture mounting hole. I too originally wanted to mount downward for better look.

As slinky describes, my shade like this has a three bar ring at top small circle with a threaded area to which you can easily attach a regular lamp harp. I use a CFL bulb with it with no trouble.

Its a light like any other. I am not sure about its performance upside down but with proper ventilation it should be ok. I love this light. Have you emailed the manufacturer?

I don't know. BUT -- this bulb is made to be screwed into a ceiling spot. That "stem" part is unusually long. I'd be concerned that it wouldn't look right or be balanced in a clamp light.
