There's something about an uplighter shade that is so appealing. They lend a soft glow to a room, the bulb is invisible and in addition, depending on your choice there is the spectacle of a beautiful stained-glass, Tiffany-style light effect which makes a stunning focal point in a room.
Or you may prefer the simpler, alabaster-style, marbled glass uplighters with their soft, pearly glow.
Unlike years ago, nowadays, at least here in the United Kingdom, we can buy beautiful glass vintage-style uplighter shades that replicate the original concept, and they only take a few minutes to install!

Hello pkmcr - Lucky you :) Jealous? Moi? :D
We live in a vintage style apartment and these are perfect and so beautiful
Hi Brenda - That's such a good idea! I love my light - it make the place look nice and cosy.
These are beautiful. I am looking for a pendant light to hang it a closet that I'm turning into a sewing nook. I'm going to have an electrician install it.
