Description

The Aethera is a 45cm diameter cylinder lampshade with a dark beige fabric outer layer stretched over a fireproof PVC frame. The drum profile sits 450mm wide with straight sides and flat top and bottom edges, designed to fit standard BC (B22) or ES (E27) shade carriers on floor lamps, table lamps and pendant conversions that can accommodate the scale.

The 45cm width suits floor lamps in living rooms, bedrooms and hallways where a larger shade is needed to balance the height of the lamp base. On table lamps, the 45cm drum works on statement pieces or console table lamps with bases at least 35-40cm wide to maintain visual proportion. The neutral dark beige tone falls between taupe and warm grey, pairing with both warm wood tones and cooler contemporary finishes without introducing strong colour contrast.

The fabric covering softens light output compared to plain PVC or paper shades, reducing glare from exposed bulbs and casting a diffused glow downward and upward through the open top and bottom apertures. The fireproof PVC inner core provides structural rigidity and meets fire safety standards for textile shades used in residential settings. The shade weighs approximately 300-350g, light enough for most standard shade carriers to support without sagging.

Frequently Asked

What fitting does it require?

The Aethera fits standard BC (B22) and ES (E27) shade carriers with a ring or clip mechanism. The shade does not include a carrier — you fit it onto the existing carrier on your lamp base or pendant adaptor.

What size lamp base does it suit?

A 45cm drum shade pairs best with floor lamp bases 130-160cm tall or table lamp bases 35-50cm wide. On narrower bases the shade can appear top-heavy; on very wide bases it may look undersized.

Is the fabric removable for cleaning?

No. The fabric is permanently bonded to the PVC frame. To clean, use a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner or a barely-damp microfibre cloth. Avoid soaking the fabric or using chemical cleaners.

What height is the shade?

The height is not listed in the specification table provided. Most 45cm diameter cylinder shades from Ideal Lux sit between 25-30cm tall, but confirm this measurement before purchasing if your lamp base requires a specific shade height.
