2 1/4, 2.25 Inch Frosted Sheffield-Style Glass Shade
The Frosted Melon Shade That Finishes the Fixture — Sheffield-Style Ribbed Glass, 2 1/4 Inch Fitter
This Sheffield-style melon ribbed replacement shade is the one a restorer reaches for when the fixture is right but the shade is wrong. Pressed into a full melon form with raised vertical ribs running from a scalloped lower skirt up through the double-lobed silhouette to a clean 2 1/4 inch fitter opening, the shape is closely associated with late Victorian and Edwardian American residential lighting — at home on an ornate period sconce, equally at ease on a simpler Arts and Crafts fixture or a reproduction built to the same proportions. The exterior glass carries a gentle shine and depth; the sandblasted frosted interior diffuses the bulb and reduces glare without deadening the light. The scalloped skirt at the base completes the period character. Wall sconces, bathroom vanity lights, small pendants, porch and entry fixtures, ceiling mounts — wherever a 2 1/4 inch fitter shade holder is waiting, this replacement shade is ready to finish the job.
MEASUREMENTS
Overall height is 4 3/4 inches. Width at the widest point is 4 1/2 inches. Fitter opening is 2 1/4 inches.
CONDITION
New replacement glass shade. The shade may show minor variations from production, including slight texture differences, mold lines, or small surface irregularities. These are characteristic of this type of pressed and sandblasted glass and do not affect fit or function.

Can't Find the Part?
Looking for a matching sconce, a replacement shade, or an odd-sized fitter? Send us a photo and measurements. A large portion of our inventory is uncataloged. Many of the doors, windows, fireplace surrounds, bath fixtures, and architectural pieces in the yard never make it to the website. If you don't see it online, that doesn't mean we don't have it.
