Necked fitter lamp glass is the most popular style used for suspended glass shades the necked fitter lamp glass has a molded curved lip which is held by the thumb screws in the glass holder/fitter. By loosening the screws on the holder the glass shade is easily removable and interchangeable. This standard of holding the lamp shade allows for the largest variety of choices of glass lamp shades.  In order to determine the fitter size of your glass measure the diameter (across the center) of the top of the neck. If you do not have a shade but you have the fixture you could measure your lamp holder/fitter in the same fashion but you will find that the lamp holder will measure slightly larger than the size of the glass lamp shade neck. The thumb screws make up the small difference. The screws that hold the glass shade in place are called thumb screws and should be tightened by hand and never with a plier.
