Just Shades

Specialties

Just Shades in New York City has been a staple in the lighting industry for close to 40 years.

Made from paper, linen, pure and synthetic silk, sheepskin and mica, our shades can cover the tiniest sconce, the grandest chandelier, and any floor or table lamp! Select from a range of shapes including rectangles, squares, ovals, octagons, drums, and A-​lines. We also offer Lamp Finials to add elegance and grandeur to your lamps. We also offer clips to attach your new shade to your lamp. We offer custom work and cater to the trade as well as the retail clientele. We can cover an existing shade or customize a size.

Our shades are available in soft-​sided or hard-​backed forms. A soft-​sided shade is a more traditional look with fabric on the outside of the shade and lining on the inside of the fabric. Soft-​sided shades are either pleated or stretched. A hard-​backed shade is either paper or fabric that is laminated or backed onto a card. Harding-​backed shades are used more often in modern settings.

At Just Shades we are sure to have the perfect shade for you!
