It has a very small "flange" at the very edge of about 1/8 in. Enough so that if you have screws to hold it in, it won't fall out.

yes it is straight and the old lamp should have screws that hold it secure. screws not needed if it is a tight fit.

Yes it is straight! I got it for my daughter she likes it! It is a little wobbly so we had to secure it!
643941
Yes, it has a groove all the way around. Screw or screws on the metal part go in to secure the globe to the lamp

I'm not sure about the globe but the lamp you can now buy at Walmart. I bought 3 more at Walmart after I purchased this one on here. No shipping & handling.

The bottom is sealed (the only opening is at the top -- you drop the globe down via hand-tightened screws to get to the bulb). Bugs can't get in easily, but about once a year I have to take off the globe and clean it because tiny bugs (gnats) somehow make it inside.

My lamps have holes at the base of the lamps, on the side so that the lamp is not resting on the cord. If you have a jar with a hole drilled into the side, it seems that would be ok. What you don't want is for the lamp to be wobbly due to a cord running under the base with no hole or no groove. Can you insert the cord and then set the lamp onto a flat surface to check for stability?

The bulbs inside the lamp are not fixed firmly. They are attached to a spring which is inserted into the actual space in the salt then it expands. One of them had completely come out when I received them. I have bought this kind of lamp before and the chord coming out of the lamp is securely attached to the base which hold the whole thing safely. I think these lamps are not safe

I am so, so sorry I didn't pay attention to this email - thought it was another advertisement. It's a very small lamp, the shade is 6 inches at its widest span. The lamps are at my Mom's house but I can check in the next couple of days to see how easy it would be to change the shade. You might want to consider a transparent paint or glaze or even a light weight fabric and cover the existing shade. I think the lamp would be wonderful in a nursery. It's not a bright light - it's a soft light. It would also be good in a bathroom where you're not needing a lot of light in the middle of the night.

It's on the top. I bought the lamp and paid more to get the bulb with it, but the bulb only lasted a little over a month which was disappointing. I bought this lamp for my friend who was burned in a house fire, so I wanted it with the bulb so he did not have to worry about one. :(

Hi, I actually replaced existing bulbs with one size smaller, so that the lights don't protrude and shine in your eyes, rather than down light on the "globe" . A bit fiddly, but doable. It took 2-3 of us a couple of hours to assemble, including the electrician - but well worth the effort. It's a magical lamp, we love it.

It doesn't fit directly on the bulb. If you google "parts of a lampshade", you'll see a what is called a harp............three spokes that meet in the middle and are secured to the "harp".I LOVE this shade - I'm not sure that it is the shade for a chandelier? Good luck! Betty

There's a chord that hangs from the "back/side" of the lamp. There is about 1 1/2" hang so that it itsn't necessarily visible on a table or night stand. On other lamps I've curled the cable underneath the lamp itself leaving just the switch right at the base of the lamp. This lamp has a felt protector underneath and is well protected, but that would be an option if you're looking that route. It gives plenty of soft light, rather than bright lighting. I am INCREDIBLY HAPPY with this lamp, it's just gorgeous! Let me know how it goes!

Comes with it's own lamp shade. Not attached to the bulb. It has a harp (I think that's the right term) so you could put any shade on top of the harp. The shade that it comes with is good though. I didn't change it out. My cat kept knocking over my regular lamp, so I decided to have something that attached to the wall ... he's so frustrated!! Good quality lamp, for sure.

It fills from the bottom. Which is kind of awkward. I solved the problem by turning it upside down in an old vase, which held it steady so I could use two hands to fill it. If you fill it with a lot of small items, be sure to pack them down tight and then also give them some time to settle. Then pour in more to the top (bottom!) it off again before screwing on the base and turning it over. It's a very nice lamp, looks great, and I recommend it if you think filling from the bottom isn't going to be a problem for your display items.

No, all you get is what you see, the lamp shade. The rest of the lamp, should have the framework that you will have to unscrew and place. I believe I had to Google information on putting it back together and it brought up pictures of how to do it. Mine was tight fitting but with a little patience and prayer I got it back together. Hope this helps. Ann D

The cake topper is currently packed away but the base is no bigger than the bottom of the item touching the "ground" as shown in the picture. Our cake topper was actually put on after our buttercream wedding cake was brought out, no one was touching the table (as seen in our wedding video) and the topper fell over. Since we were in such a good mood, this was not a problem from us as we just rotated the cake to hide the smudge of icing and left the topper on the side. This was a great wedding topper that worked for us, but I would recommend finding something flat to glue this to so it doesn't easily fall over :) The cake topper is currently packed away but the base is no bigger than the bottom of the item touching the "ground" as shown in the picture.

Sorry, I'm not able to help beyond the answers already submitted. Maybe I should send you mine as I am very disappointed with the low quality of this product. The stem, which comes in two sections which are supposed to thread together, were not even comparable and I had to shim the treads with foil. This is now breaking down and the lamp leans at that joint. It is also coming loose at the base. Very poor engineering, although the lamp itself is exactly what i needed for reading and not having to light up the entire room, disturbing TV watching and such. Good luck on your converter search!

I just read the other response and have a comment. The lamp has "Bling" and that's what I needed in my room as an accent. It was perfect for what I was looking for. I would not consider it gaudy....just "blingy" and it works if used in the right space.

There is a harp that clips around the bulb, and an upwardly protruding screw on top of the harp. There is then a brass spindle that screws down onto the harp-screw. The spindle needs tightening fairly often, in order to avoid a swiveling lampshade. If this is not clear, ask me again. : )
