Bronze Finials

Find the Perfect Bronze Finial

There are a few factors that you should consider when shopping for a bronze finial. They include:

Design

The first factor to consider when choosing a bronze finial is its design. At Just Shades, our collection of bronze finials offers a range of carefully crafted designs, each bringing a unique flair to your lamp.

Whether you're seeking a modern, minimalist look or an ornate, classic touch, our collection of bronze finials has something to suit every taste.

The design you should choose will depend on the overall style of your lamp and the aesthetic you want to achieve.

Shape

As you may have already seen, our bronze finial collection includes various shapes, from spheres to pineapples and Chinese coins.

When choosing a bronze finial, consider the shape of your lamp and lampshade in order to match it with a finial that is conducive to the particular shapeliness of your lamp’s design.

The Lamp Base

Another important consideration not to overlook when choosing a bronze finial is the base of your lamp.

A bronze finial can create a more cohesive and sophisticated look if your lamp base is crafted from a similar bronze material or has a metallic finish.

Size

Lastly, consider the size of the bronze finial you’re considering buying. When choosing a finial, envision how its size and style will complement your lamp’s overall design. 

Selecting a bronze finial involves more than style; size is essential to creating a harmonious look. The aesthetic should be balanced and visually cohesive, as shown by how the finial’s dimensions interact with your lamp’s shape, height, and overall decor.

Consider the dimensions of your lamp base and shade. A balanced finial typically measures between 1 and 1.5 inches tall, but this may vary based on your lamp’s height and the scale of your decor. 

The right size ensures your finial enhances your lamp’s design without overpowering it, creating a balanced, cohesive look that complements your space perfectly. 

Which Lampshades Are Compatible With Bronze Finials?

Most American-style lamps utilize a harp, which makes them compatible with a spider fitter shade, and also a finial. However, not all lampshades are designed to accommodate a lamp finial. So, before you search for a bronze finial that you like, ensure your lampshade is compatible with one.

Luckily, the spider fitter shade is the most common, and more importantly, it’s easy to use and assemble. The shade and finial attach to the top of the harp, which is a U-shaped metal frame that attaches directly to the lamp on one end, and attaches to the shade and finial at the other end. 

The lampshade rests on the small circular disc found on the top of the harp, and the threaded screw just above it allows you to attach the finial, securing the lamp and lampshade together while keeping the shade firmly positioned. This not only ensures your shade stays firmly in place, but simultaneously adds a decorative touch to your lamp.

We offer a wide variety of spider-fitter lampshades that are compatible with bronze finials. These include empire lamp shades, bell lamp shades, oval lamp shades and more.

Each lampshade style can pair beautifully with our bronze finials, offering different aesthetics that can transform the look and feel of your lamp and living space.
