There are two types of light fixtures: single or multi-shade. One shade is typically used for single-shade, while multi-shade options have several shades. These lamps can provide full spectrum light that should brighten the table.


Tiffany light is another type. These lights are classic and available in many colors. They are ideal for creating the look of an old-time bar. These lights are slightly more expensive but can provide the classic pool table look.

A stained-glass pool table light is also a popular choice. These lights have a mosaic-like design and a stained glass ornament. These lights usually hang from an iron bar, which attaches to the ceiling. You can choose from a 44-inch single-shade model or a 52 inch bar.

That is why you need to provide adequate support for the light. It's a smart idea to have spare bulbs on hand in case one of your multi-shade lamps is damaged or needs replacement.
