SHADE FOR ELECTRIC LAMPS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 16, 1909.
Application filed March 12, 1906. Serial No. 305,525.
T o all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, NnLLm C. BnnrN, a subject of the King of Great Britain, and residing at London, England, have invented a new and useful Shade for Electric Lamps, of which the following is a specification.
Objects of the present invention are to provide comparatively inexpensive and very decorative shades which shall present an attractive and durable appearance and may be employed for producing soft and agreeable illuminations and also a great variety of different effects.
To these and other ends hereinafter set forth the invention, stated in general terms, comprises a shade consisting of a reticulated body portion of beads or the like adapted to envelop the globe, tube or bulb of the lamp and having securing means and being decorated in whole or in part by means of ornaments of material, such as glass, and of appropriate forms such as flowers, fruits, conventional designs or the like.
The nature, characteristic features and scope of my invention will be more fully understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings forming part hereof and which illustrate in elevation one type of shade embodying features of the invention in application to an electric lightv of usual construction.
In the drawings l, is a reticulated body portion adapted by making it bag-shaped to the bulb 2, of the lamp. The shape of the reticulated body portion may be varied and changed so as to tit it to the particular size or variety of globe, tube or bulb with which it is intended to be used. The reticulated body portion comprises a frame or skeleton as of wires upon which are strung glass beads or like ornaments 3, of the same or of different colors as may be required.
4, is an adjustable holder or clamp for securing the shade to place and it is connected with the body portion. As shown this holder or clamp consists of a number of rods or bars 5, pivoted to ether as at 6, so as to constitute an expansi le ring which may be passed over the lamp bulb and then contracted around its neck portion so as to secure the shade to place.
a, indicates a hook or fastening which,
when present, may be employed for holding the ring in contracted positlon. As shown the wires or strands of the body portion are attached to the ring, holder or clamp 4, so that the shade, as a whole, depends therefrom.
7, are ornaments shown as of lioral design but not limited to any special design and they are secured to the meshes of the body portion, for example, by perforating them and tying them by means of wires or the like 8. In the drawings the ornaments 7, are confined to the lower portion of the shade but this is not necessary be variously arranged.
In use the reticulated body portion, while ornamental in itself, constitutes also an attractive back-ground upon which the ornaments 7, are displayed and by employing more or less translucent and appropriately colored materials for the body portion and ornaments 7, it is possible to produce varied, beautiful and attractive color effects. Furthermore the structure of the shade is such that it is comparatively inexpensive to manufacture and capable of application to a variety of electric lamps of different shapes and kinds.
By the foregoing description I do not intend to limit the invention to the character of the ornaments employed nor to anyl special eolor or combination of colors nor to any particular degree of translucency of material, but
Having thus described the nature and objects of my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
An ornamental lamp shade comprising a clamp or holder, a bag shaped skelet-on consisting of a flexible diagonal mesh network substantially as shown of wires having beads strung upon them, the shape of the network being variable to fit diierent globes and the like, strings of beads connecting the clamp or holder and the meshes of the network, and ornaments superposed on the network and secured thereto.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto signed my name.
NELLIE C. BEBIN. In the presence of- W. J. JACKSON, FRANK E. FRENCH.
