You have likely seen a Bouillotte (say BOO YAHT) lamp shade. They are commonly found on brass desk lamps that have two or three candlesticks. These shades appear short and squatty compared to most lamp shades. They are commonly made of metal, parchment paper, silk or mica and usually black, cream or antique bronze color with a gold or white inside. Many of these lamps are made with a brass center pipe that holds the shade and which allows the shade height to be adjusted up or down. This adjustable feature is taken from the original candle burning lamp that used a Bouillotte shade.

Bouillotte was a French card game that was very popular during the late 1700's. Original Bouillotte lamps were candle lamps that had a bowl shaped base where the game chips were stored. A central tube surrounded by candle holders held a metal shade. The Bouillotte shade could be adjusted downward to cover and shade the burning candles as they burned lower thereby shading the direct candle light from the players eyes. Modern electric Bouillotte lamps often have this adjustable shade feature incorporated into the design for authenticity although it has no practical use.
