ABOUT
 Cook's Lamp Shader's Co.

Cook's Lamps was established by Ted and Mildred Cook in 1954 as an antique and gift store at the present location. The second generation, Robert and Dolores Bosman, greatly expanded the scope of the store and its services. Presently, the third generation, Marcia Connolly and her husband, Brian carry on the fine traditions of the former generations.
In 2003 and 2004 Cook's Lamps was thrilled to be named the best lamp shade store in Metro Detroit.

We are a well-established store of nearly 6000 square feet. We are dedicated to providing an unsurpassed selection of over 6500 lamp shades in stock, 100s of table and floor lamps and lighting fixtures, a wide variety of lamp shade parts and glass, and 1,000s of finials. We have a full-service repair department that can restore your current lamps to working order, as well as creating new lamps from treasured pieces.
 
Whether it's a family heirloom, attic treasure or newly acquired object, you'll find that Cook's Lamps as your repair and restoration needs covered, including parts for the do-it-yourselfer.

Additionally, we carry newer technology lamps and bulbs designed to bring natural daylight indoors, reducing glare and eyestrain and improving visual clarity.
If you need a new shade, you’ll want to bring your favorite lamp base in for a proper shade fitting, so you can actually see how the different styles and colors actually light up your lamp. Alter all, your lamp is probably the first thing you turn on when you enter a room, and the last thing you turn off. 

Once you see our fabulous selection of shades, from chic to classic, and casual to cool, in a variety of price ranges, you’ll be glad you brought your lamp shade needs to Cook's Lamps, where our knowledgeable staff takes pride in offering lamp shades – made in the US – that will accent your decor and reflect your tastes.

We like to say that if we don't have it, you don't need it! But, please rest assured, we will do all we can to helping you find it, fix it, or replace it. We look forward to serving you!
