Lamp shade into a light fixture?

I have a room that has no light fixture,Idea's to turn a lamp shade into the light fixture cover? Adding something to the shade maybe?
The light is there...2 bulbs and a spiral post coming down from that . It is a old house. I think there was probally something very pretty there but it's long gone now. I have a lamp shade that reminds me of Old victorian times. It's cloth. I would have to put it on upside down on the ceiling. But how to decorate it? Hot glue and what? I am doing the room as a dressing room,2 closits and our dressers,a vanity table and mirror, I want old world/victorian.
It's a LAMP SHADE bone head! It goes around light bulbs to start with!

fire hazard - don't do it!

Victorian glass pear drop shades need metal holder to fit lamp holder. Where do I buy?

The shades originally fitted into a metal holder with a circular hole in the middle for the lamp holder. 3 screws around the rim hold under the lip on the glass shade. The shades do not have a screw top just a small lip. They are heavy cut glass - 3 matching and two odd but similar. The diameter of the glass rim is 82mm.

Try Christopher Wray Lighting Emporium.

The part you're after is usually called a 'Monks cap gallery'

I have an oil lamp that I think may be victorian?

It has a double duplex burner ceramic body the shade is pale green going down to clear and is etched the base is sort of diamond shape if that makes sense I do have pictures that will be more helpful than my description thankyou in advance any info would be greatfully appreciated.

I collect victorian items & a picture would be helpful. Most victorian lamps had a brass burner.
