I've got a great Hampshire Pottery lamp base that I would like to put an appropriate shade on. I believe it would have originally had one of the willow basket-type shades with a linen liner.

Does anyone know where I can purchase this this type of shade?

Many thanks

I was walking through an Ikea store recently and they had several types of willow baskets and I thought that several of them would make decent willow style shades, if turned upside down. Just a thought. Honestly, I have scoured the net for sellers of shades (slag glass, mica etc.) because I just finished a lamp and I have 2 more A&C lamps to do and unless you request a special order from a company that does complete lamps, it is impossible to just find A&C shades. I imagine repro willow shades will be the absolute hardest thing to find, so you might be forced to DIY.
