Anyone know where I can buy clear glass sphere lampshades?

My wife wants them all over the house!!
I can find them with fittings (but I've just changed all the fittings), I just need a clear glass shade about 30cm and in the shape of a sphere? (to hang from the ceiling)
Spent a while on Amazon and they all come with one type of fitting or another!
Can someone point me in the right direction??

Tbh, any decent lighting shop should be able to supply this sort of thing.0 -
Instead of changing all the lights have you considered it may be simpler to change the wife?0

23cm though. Might be worth giving eBay a whirl if you haven't already.
It's probably easier to replace your wife in all honesty, she's given you a job and a half here.0 -
Ah, here you go! https://www.amazon.co.uk/GlassLampShop-Replacement-Glass-Shades-White/dp/B07VB2ZX5F/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=replacement+clear+glass+globe+shades&qid=1567009762&s=gateway&sr=8-2 'Replacement clear glass globe' is what you need to pop into the search filter. This does what is says on the tin.0

Okay, but you know they're not going to look any good on a standard pendant with a standard lightbulb?
Has your wife showed you a picture of what she's expecting it to look like? The reality could be quite different to the idea, hence most of what you are looking at involves a nice fitting too.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.
