Wall Light Replacement Globe

Need a glass, cup shaped replacement globe for a small wall light. Ceiling fan replacement globes have bigger openings in the base than what I need. Have burned up the internet looking for smaller open top cup shaped globe that sits over the bulb with only about a 1" opening in the base. Any place in San Antonio stock these? Or online?

I'd suggest taking the fixture off the wall and looking for a manufacturer or model number. You could also check with RV manufacturer to find out supplier if either are still in business. Also, check with suppliers in Elkhart, IN, the capitol of RV parts.

Glass lamp shades are measured by the outside diameter of the part that fits into the fixture. It is called the "fitter." Probably the most common size is a 2-1/4" fitter, but there are smaller ones. Many places online sell lamp parts, but here is one that will give you an idea of what is available and has them broken down by size.
