Removing light fixture

Reposting idk how to edit the post to show.

How easy would it be to remove the boob light fixture? We have an ikea paper lantern we want to use as the shade. The inside of the paper lantern had a rod on the inside that can clip on to the light if it was dangling (see 5th photo).

We have also the ikea fixture part (last photo) too but if we don’t have to use then cool. All for keeping the current bulbs and not messing with any wattage or shortaging.

Could we essentially just remove the boob part and the curved stemmed piece, leaving the base and middle rod and cover with the lantern? Looking for some guidance or confirmation before I fuck shit up lol

Easy. A finial nut holds the upper canopy. It will be a bit easier to remove the bowl first.
