Lighting of a room can make a world of difference to the ambience and decors of the room. A lamp with a well suited shade adds to the decor and brightens up the room as well.

Shades can be made from a range of materials -- fabric (in forms such as weaved, burlap, shantung, jute or linen); paper (in the form of exotic, eco-friendly or plain), oil parchment; stone, glass; or porcelain.

Styling of lampshades is another factor one considers while making a choice. Some of them are:

�    Glass lampshades: Reverse painted, ball glass, lily and tulip are some of the styling of these shades. While they look contemporary and elegant, they are fragile and expensive if they need replacement. 
�    Tiffany lampshades: Stained glass pieces are soldered with copper or lead and styled into shapes pertaining mostly to nature, like animals and flowers. Modern art forms and contemporary styles are tailor-made as required. 
�    Antique lampshades: These are elegant, tailor made shades. These are made of satin, silk or velvet whose fringes are beaded or braided and lined with lace. 
�    Western lampshades: These shades are made of leather or skin of pigs, deer or calves. This gives a rustic look to the lamp and also to the room. 
�    Chandelier shades: These are available in many shapes and fabrics. They add to the glamour of any interior and look delicate and pretty. 
�    Mica lampshades: they are available in contemporary and traditional designs. Amber or white colored mica shades are lined with translucent material for lesser dispersal of light. This is suitable for wooden or iron lamp bases.
