Abstract: A one-piece, collapsible lampshade is disclosed. The invention comprises an upper and lower ring, between which a shade is attached. Supports are permanently attached to one ring, with each support having a hinge part-way along its length. Receptacles are mounted on the opposite ring to receive the unattached end of the supports. The shade may be shipped and stored in the collapsed state by removing the unattached end of the supports from the receptacles and folding the supports flat. Because the shade is shipped and stored in one piece, it is easily and quickly assembled by the purchaser, without the risk of losing parts or of damage during shipment due to the movement of loose parts against one another.
