1) If possible,bring your lamp base to the store.If you can't bring the base,bring its measurement and a piece of cloth or paper that matches its colour.
2) Look at the shade with the light on and off.The nature of the shade will be very different.It's important to see how it appears during the day and at night.
3) Be open to something different,like a new shape or texture.
4) Consider the lamp's role in the room.If you want an art piece,you might go for a more elegant,elaborate shade.If you don't want the lamp to stand out as much,choose s simpler shade.
