Each is named for where it sits and how it mounts.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What is the difference between a lamp and a light fixture?<\/h3>\r\n<p>In everyday use a &#8220;lamp&#8221; is a portable fixture with a base and shade, while a &#8220;light fixture&#8221; is usually a permanently installed unit such as a pendant, chandelier or flush mount. In technical terms, &#8220;lamp&#8221; can also mean the bulb itself.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What are the different types of ceiling lights?<\/h3>\r\n<p>Common ceiling lights include pendants, mini and multi-light pendants, chandeliers, flush mounts, semi-flush mounts, recessed downlights, track lights and linear island lights.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What is a torchiere lamp?<\/h3>\r\n<p>A torchiere is a floor lamp with an upward-facing shade that bounces light off the ceiling for soft, indirect ambient lighting.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What is a banker&#8217;s lamp?<\/h3>\r\n<p>A banker&#8217;s lamp is a desk lamp with a brass or metal base and a distinctive green glass shade that directs light downward, traditionally used in libraries and offices.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What types of glass are used for lamp shades?<\/h3>\r\n<p>The main glass types for lamp shades are opal (milk-white, diffusing), clear, coloured, borosilicate (heat-resistant) and stained or Tiffany glass. Each can be made in any lampshade shape.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What are the parts of a lamp called?<\/h3>\r\n<p>The main parts of a lamp are the base, body, socket, harp, finial, fitter and shade. The fitter is the part of the shade that attaches it to the lamp.<\/p>\r\n<h3>How many types of lamps are there?<\/h3>\r\n<p>There is no fixed number, but lamps and light fixtures can be grouped into well over 100 named types across placement, style, light source and shade \u2014 as listed on this page.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What kind of lamp is best for a living room?<\/h3>\r\n<p>A living room works best with layered lighting: a couple of table lamps for warmth, a floor lamp or arc lamp for reading, and an overhead pendant or chandelier for ambient light. Dimmable warm-white bulbs make the room flexible.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What is the best lamp for reading?<\/h3>\r\n<p>The best reading lamps are directional task lamps \u2014 a swing-arm or gooseneck desk lamp, an adjustable floor lamp, or a bedside lamp with an opaque shade. Aim for 800\u20131,600 lumens of glare-free light positioned to the side of the page.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What colour temperature should I choose for a lamp?<\/h3>\r\n<p>Choose warm white (2700\u20133000K) for living rooms and bedrooms where you want a cosy feel, and neutral to cool white (3500\u20134000K) for kitchens, bathrooms and home offices where you need clear task light.<\/p>\r\n<h3>How big should a lamp be for my table?<\/h3>\r\n<p>As a rule of thumb, a table lamp should be about one-third of the total height from the tabletop to your eye level when seated, and the shade should be slightly wider than the widest part of the base.<\/p>\r\n<h3>What is the difference between ambient, task and accent lighting?<\/h3>\r\n<p>Ambient lighting is the general light that fills a room, task lighting is focused light for an activity like reading or cooking, and accent lighting highlights a feature such as artwork. A good scheme layers all three.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<!-- ===================== REFERENCES ===================== -->\r\n<h2 id=\"references\">References &amp; further reading<\/h2>\r\n<p>This guide draws on established references for lamp and lighting types:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Wikipedia \u2014 <em>Light fixture<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Light_fixture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Light_fixture<\/a>)<\/li>\r\n<li>Wikipedia \u2014 <em>Pendant light<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pendant_light\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pendant_light<\/a>)<\/li>\r\n<li>Wikipedia \u2014 <em>Chandelier<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chandelier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chandelier<\/a>)<\/li>\r\n<li>Wikipedia \u2014 <em>Tiffany lamp<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tiffany_lamp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tiffany_lamp<\/a>)<\/li>\r\n<li>Wikipedia \u2014 <em>Banker&#8217;s lamp<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Banker%27s_lamp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Banker%27s_lamp<\/a>)<\/li>\r\n<li>Wikipedia \u2014 <em>Incandescent light bulb<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Incandescent_light_bulb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Incandescent_light_bulb<\/a>)<\/li>\r\n<li>Wikipedia \u2014 <em>LED lamp<\/em> (<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/LED_lamp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/LED_lamp<\/a>)<br \/><br \/><br \/><br \/><\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<h3><strong>Request a Quote for Custom Glass Lampshades<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<h3><div class='fluentform ff-default fluentform_wrapper_3 ffs_default_wrap'><form data-form_id=\"3\" id=\"fluentform_3\" class=\"frm-fluent-form fluent_form_3 ff-el-form-top ff_form_instance_3_1 ff-form-loading ffs_default\" data-form_instance=\"ff_form_instance_3_1\" method=\"POST\" ><fieldset  style=\"border: none!important;margin: 0!important;padding: 0!important;background-color: transparent!important;box-shadow: none!important;outline: none!important;
