Abstract
A leveling system for a lamp shade can include a bearing, a stud extension, and a weight. The bearing can be positionable around a stud of a lamp shade assembly and can be configured to be supported by a bracket of the lamp shade assembly. The bearing can define a bearing surface engageable with a hub of the lamp shade to provide an articulation surface for the hub. The weight can be releasably securable to a spoke of the lamp shade and can be positionable on the spoke to level the lamp shade about the bearing with respect to a plane.
