There is disclosed a device for supporting a lamp shade on a variety of lamp sockets of different diameters. The supporting device, also referred to as a lamp shade holder, is constructed with an outer rim adapted to be secured to the lamp shade, an inner rim secured to the outer rim, and two sets of fingers extending from the inner rim and terminating in two different sets of socket engaging ends. One set of socket engaging ends is adapted to engage a first lamp socket having a size falling within a first range of sizes. The other set of socket engaging ends is adapted to engage at least a second lamp socket having a size falling within a second range of sizes which are different from the sizes within the first range. As an additional feature, a plurality of washers of different thicknesses are provided integrally with the lamp shade holder. The washers are detachable so that one or more of these washers can be placed between a lamp socket and lamp of small diameter to prevent the lamp shade from slipping off the socket and over the lamp.
