:ighting Non-Flamable Shade Paper for Vintage light. Ideas?

[robertjdolphin]

Hi All,

I have a camper light that is nothing but a metal frame. Back in the day, it had some kind of a flame proof paper that diffused the light. The paper is long gone, now I need something to put in there, that won't torch the camper when it gets hot.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Can you post a picture of the light?

Try this. I think that it's basically vellum. This site has some other stuff too. I've used it before for ohter lamps. It's really a proximity and heat question. Never cover a lampshade.
