The hooks are integrally sewn to the shade body across the top and bottom end where embedded with the circular frame and metal frames. The clips are spreading evenly across the shade body edge to embrace the shade body hence from the conic shape. The circular frame is made from metal, embedded with the hooks on the top end to support the shade body. The lampshade can be minimized to facilitate storage and transfer of large amount of products, hence minimize the occupied space and cut down the overheads.
