Abstract
A knock down lamp shade using a pleated material is disclosed which has excellent appearance and storability, and is easily assembled and dis-assembled. A flexible draw ring connected to the pleated material that provides and assists the assembly and dis-assembly function yet forms the top of an assembled lamp shade. A novel rigid supporting structure is disclosed that is easily stored, assembled and dis-assembled, and when combined with my pleated material, creates an esthetically pleasing and economical known down lamp shade that has excellent capacity to hide or obscure the shadows from the supporting structure from observation when installed on a lit lamp.
