Elegant Modern Lamp Shade Finial - Replacement Part (Parametric Base)

Modern Lamp Shade Finial - Easy Replacement Part

This is a clean, elegant replacement finial I designed to replace broken or lost lamp shade finials on my table and floor lamps.

Features:

- Smooth spherical top with a polished look when printed in smooth filament (matte or glossy PLA/PETG both work great)

- Classic turned-style base that gives it a high-end furniture feel

- Central through-hole designed to fit standard lamp harp threaded rods (typically 1/4"-27 or similar — check your lamp)

- Includes a small recess at the bottom for the nut or washer if needed

- Solid and sturdy once printed

Printing Recommendations:

- Material: PLA, PETG, or ABS

- Layer Height: 0.2 mm or finer for smoother curves

- Infill: 20-30% is more than enough (it's a small part)

- Supports: None required in the orientation shown

- Finish: Sand lightly and paint if you want a metallic or antique look

The model is shown in two versions in the photos:

1. Cutaway view highlighting the internal structure and hole

2. Final assembled/printed appearance

This finial is designed to be both functional and decorative. It prints quickly and looks great in any filament color.

If your lamp has a non-standard thread size, feel free to scale the model slightly or let me know — I can make a parametric version available later.

Happy printing! Replace those ugly or broken finials and give your lamps a fresh, modern upgrade.
