i have played around with diffuse transmitter material and it seems not to be very useful for lampshades :( Because light comes through the mesh but it will be not reflected from inner side. And also it will not be droped on the wall. As you can see, the light arrive the wall just as colored shadow.

I think that's why it would be a good idea to blend it with diffuse material.
