I'd replace the entire piece of plexi and reglue the new fabric to the new insert - carefully cut/remove the old plexi/plastic from the lamp and discard - it will also give you better access to replace the fixture/ electric/ chain - the best part of that light is the inspiration, and the globe of shells is the perfect frame to recreate it on. That's the most satisfying flea market find. it challenges your imagination, and your handiwork = the result is truly vintage style polynesian. Lucky , lucky you! I'm jealous.
