[QUOTE="KingofThings, post: 59665, member: 468"]As a fabricator I find that a pretty cheesy bracket to hold the socket and shade in place. :p Looks like it's been overtightened in the past to chip the top of the vase, or whatever it is. :p The more you tighten that thin stamped sheet metal bracket the more it will bend. I think it's a marriage to that vase...or whatever that is. If it were a quality piece it would fit in a collar over the 'vase' I should think. It also appears that the shade would be heavier than the 'vase' and so it would be very top heavy and asking for a smashing. My 3 cents. :)[/QUOTE]
