Description
This 14" drum lampshade is constructed from soft grey viscose fabric with a silver metallic lining and hand-rolled top and bottom edges. The shade measures 35.5cm in diameter and 26cm in height, fitting table lamps and floor lamps with either E14 or E27 bulb fittings via a removable plastic adapter ring included with the shade.
Designed for bedside tables, side tables and floor lamp bases where a mid-height shade is needed, the 14" size suits lamp bases between 30-45cm tall for balanced proportions. The grey outer fabric diffuses light softly through the sides while the silver metallic lining reflects light downwards and upwards, increasing brightness without additional wattage. The hand-rolled edges eliminate visible seam stitching and give the shade a cleaner profile when viewed from the side.
The viscose fabric has a low-sheen surface that absorbs rather than reflects ambient daylight, preventing the shade from looking shiny or glazed in bright rooms. The silver lining shows through slightly at the top and bottom apertures when the lamp is off, creating a subtle metallic accent. At 0.45kg the shade is light enough to sit securely on most table lamp harps and floor lamp finials without requiring additional support.
The removable adapter ring allows the same shade to fit both narrow E14 candelabra-style lamp bases and wider E27 Edison screw bases, avoiding the need to purchase different shades for different lamp types. The grey viscose outer is part of a three-colour range (grey, cream, charcoal) available in three sizes (14", 16", 20"), allowing coordinated shades across multiple rooms.

Frequently Asked
What lamp bases does this shade fit?
The shade includes a removable plastic adapter ring that fits both E14 (small Edison screw/candelabra) and E27 (standard Edison screw) lamp bases. Remove the ring for E27 bases, leave it in place for E14 bases.
What size lamp base does the 14" shade suit?
A 14" (35.5cm) diameter shade works best on lamp bases between 30-45cm tall. For taller floor lamps consider the 16" or 20" versions in this range.
Does the silver lining show when the lamp is off?
Yes. The silver metallic lining is visible through the top and bottom apertures when the lamp is switched off, creating a subtle accent around the bulb fitting and base ring.
Can the viscose fabric be cleaned?
Viscose fabric lampshades should be dusted with a soft brush or microfibre cloth. Do not use water or spray cleaners, as viscose can water-mark and the metallic lining may tarnish if wetted.
