There is hardly any more confusion in the lighting industry than how to select a replacement glass shade for a torchiere lamp.
First let us define a torchiere lamp. A torchiere lamp is any table or floor lamp whose light is directed upward by means of a glass, metal, stone, plastic or other type of reflector. These lamps take many forms and are made of many materials but most commonly made as floor lamps.
The word "Torchiere" is derived from the French word "Torche" torch.
These popular lamps provide excellent area lighting because they bounce light off the ceiling and diffuse it throughout a large area of the room.
There are four (4) basic types of torchiere glass.
1) Dish type torchiere glass (most common) is a dish or bowl shape glass shade with a 1 5/8" wide center hole that simply slips down over the electrical socket and rests upon a metal or plastic holder. There is a threaded ring which screws down over the electrical socket to hold the glass in place. This type torchiere glass is usually frosted white, beige or plain white.
2) Reflector waffle pattern opal white torchiere glass is a cone shape glass shade available in two (2) common sizes: 2.75" fitter that is 10" wide and the other is a 2.25" fitter that is 8" wide. This torchiere glass usually has a waffle type pattern pressed into the surface of the glass although there are some with no pattern in the glass. These torchiere glass shades were very popular in the 1920's and 1930's and were found on many 6 way floor lamps that had 3 arm lights plus a center light. They are also available on some modern lamps as well as some floor lamps without arms. Many of these lamps are designed for a fabric lamp shade to rest upon the reflector glass. This arrangement not only provides excellent area lighting but also excellent reading light.
3) Long neck torchiere glass is a larger glass, usually around 13-16" wide with a long neck that fits down inside a 2.75 - 3"" wide holder. This glass shade has the appearance of a very wide funnel with neck. These are the most expensive type of torchiere glass shades.
4) Stiffel replacement torchiere glass is made specifically to fit lamps from this lamp maker.
If you need further help selecting the correct torchiere glass for your lamp, be sure to contact a professional full service lamp company with lots of experience with torchiere lamps.
Good luck on all your lighting projects.

There are many styles and sizes of glass shades, many of which are standard. It can be initially confusing trying to figure out the right size and style for your particular fixture or lamp, but here are some guidelines that will assist you in making the right choice.
First tip: Always take measurements from outside edge to outside edge as this is how glass sizes are classified.
Second tip: Remember that glass is undersize. What does this mean? If the glass is classified as a 2 1/4", or a 7", the actual measurement of the glass will be slightly less than its stated size.
The first step is to determine how your glass is held in place.
1. Does the glass sit on a table lamp or chandelier that has a round ring or tripod? You probably want a Student shade. Measure the ring, outside edge to outside edge. Standard sizes are 5", 6", 7", 8", 10", 12" and 14". There is often a place for a chimney to sit within the larger ring. Again, measure that holder, outside edge to outside edge.
2. Is the glass held in place by three screws and does it have a slightly flared neck? If so, measure the cup or holder, outside edge to outside edge.
* If the holder measures just over 2 1/4", you are looking for 2 1/4" fitter shades.
* If the holder measures just over 3 1/4" or 4", you are looking for 3 1/4" or 4" fitter shades. Both sizes come in two styles: either enclosed globes or open shades.
* Glass with 6", 8" and 10" fitters are also available in enclosed globe styles.
3. Do you have a table lamp that has a brass or glass bottom and the glass sits on a ring with no screws? You may be looking for a Gone With The Wind globe. The ring will measure just over 4" and the globe will have a straight neck that just sits on the ring. There is usually a smaller holder for a Chimney within the larger 4' ring.
4. Does your glass have a fairly flat opening with no distinct neck? Do you put it on the lamp or fixture around the light bulb socket and then screw a ring around the threaded part of the protruding socket? If so, you are looking for a Neckless shade. Most of these shades have a 1 5/8" opening.
5. Floor lamps can be very confusing. We have found the most common types to be as follows:
* If your lamp is newer, and you need a glass with a 1 5/8"-1 7/8" opening, you may need a Neckless shade. The shade is placed on the lamp around the bulb socket, and a ring generally threads around the part of the socket that protrudes.
* Shades on older floor lamps, called Torchieres, have a longish neck that measures 2 3/4" which fits around an oversize Mogul light bulb socket.
* There is also a very popular floor lamp, dating from the 1950"s, that looks like a torchiere but uses a different type of glass. If your floor lamp has a holder with screws, it will not take the older torchiere style. You need what is called an IES Diffuser glass shade. Often the IES shade supports a fabric shade. IES Diffusers come in three standard sizes: 2 1/4" fitter with a 6" top diameter, 2 1/4" fitter with an 8" top diameter, and 2 7/8" fitter with a 10" top diameter.
6. Chimneys usually sit within several prongs or inside of a round gallery. Again, measure outside edge to outside edge to determine the correct size.
7. Hurricane glass is commonly used on chandeliers and wall sconces. The holder or cup will measure about 1 3/4" outside edge to outside edge. The glass itself is called a 1 5/8" fitter, although the actual measurement is closer to 1 1/2".
Hopefully these tips will help you in determining the proper glass shade for your lamp or fixture. Good luck! Tania Maxwell
