Empire Lampshades

Empire lampshades are a tapered shade, the shade size if referred to by the bottom ring diameter. Generally speaking, the top ring diameter on an empire is 10cm smaller than the bottom ring. The larger 50cm diam and above empire shades have slightly more difference between the ring sizes. Our empire shades are photographed in a 25cm diameter however depending on the diameter and height of the lampshade you require this may change the visual shape of the shade slightly.
