Did the Nazis use tattoos for lampshades?
They didn't, but it is said that they used their skin to make other pieces of furniture, such as couches and rugs.____No. At the time of the early postwar trials of concentration camp guards some journalists said that a few of the guards had had lampshades made out of the skin of prisoners with erotic tattoos.

All this was entertaining stuff for some readers.It seems to be a popular urban legend.
