Diffusers and Diffuser Shades

Diffusers are a glass "bowl" which forces the light upwards providing bright, indirect lighting to illuminate a room.

Many people think that the diffuser should be a shade in itself and look for one that is fancy or colored. Such is not the case. A diffuser is simply a milk glass bowl that is made to diffuse the light upwards. A fabric shade then sits on top for aesthetics and to soften the glare from the bright bulbs.  

Floor lamps with a 3 candelabra sockets around the diffuser are the most common and popular type of lamps that take a diffuser. Diffuser lamps are still very popular today because of the great light they provide. They take large "Mogul" bulbs  in the center which are very high wattage and therefore, are a powerful light source without being harsh.
