Mustard Art Glass Shade (Ruskin Only)

Measure the shade’s outer diameter at the fitter, overall height, and the opening type (lip, threading, or set-screw). Compare to the fixture’s holder.

Fitter size is the diameter of the opening that mates to the fixture—common sizes are 2-1/4", 3-1/4", and 4". Match exactly for a secure fit.

Popular styles include clear, frosted, opal, seeded, prismatic, and colored or etched glass, plus schoolhouse and bell shapes.

Yes—clear glass maximizes lumens but can create sparkle or glare; frosted or opal glass diffuses light for softer, even illumination.

Many shades are tempered or thicker-walled for safety; verify spec details, especially for overhead or high-traffic areas.

Choose trims and screws that match your fixture’s finish (e.g., brushed nickel, bronze). Some collections offer coordinated hardware.

Use damp- or wet-rated assemblies where moisture is present and ensure gaskets are intact. Outdoor fixtures need rated glass and seals.

Dust routinely and wash with mild soap and water. Avoid ammonia or abrasives that can haze glass or damage finishes.

Confirm the fixture’s weight limit and ensure set screws or rings are in good condition. Do not overtighten on thin glass lips.

Because dimensions vary by line, choose sellers with clear measurement charts and straightforward return policies.
