Description
A drum shade in taupe faux silk, lined in halo gold so the light takes on a warm cast as it falls, hung from satin nickel suspension with a matching ceiling cup. At 30cm across the shade is generous without being heavy in a small room, and the fabric softens the lamp behind it. It is a quiet shape rather than a loud one, and we reach for it where a hanging light needs to sit in a scheme without taking it over.
The drop can be set anywhere up to 3.3m, so it suits a spot over a kitchen island, a bedside table, or a stairwell where a shorter fitting would look lost. It takes an E27 lamp in the GLS shape, rated to 20W, which in LED is ample for a bedroom or a small dining table. We would choose a warm white lamp here so the gold lining has something to work with. Dimming is possible with a suitable lamp and a compatible dimmer, neither of which comes with the fitting. Dry indoor rooms are its place; a bathroom is not.
The metalwork is finished in satin nickel, a soft grey sheen that sits happily with brushed taps and handles, and the faux silk gives the shade a gentle lustre rather than a shine. Keep water off the fabric: a soft brush, or a vacuum nozzle held just clear of the surface, deals with dust, and the nickel wants nothing more than a dry cloth. It carries a one year warranty. The wider Baymont range runs to universal semi flush fittings and linear pendants in polished chrome, antique brass, satin nickel, white and satin black, so a hall and a landing can be matched up. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What size is the shade?
It measures 30cm in diameter and 17cm deep, with the fitting itself standing 345mm from cup to the base of the shade.
How far down will it hang?
The drop runs from a minimum of 380mm to a maximum of 3.3m, so it can be set close to the ceiling or taken well down over an island or a stairwell.
Which lamp should I use?
An E27 lamp in the GLS A60 shape, up to 20W. An LED of that wattage gives plenty of light for most rooms.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, with a dimmable lamp and a compatible dimmer. Neither is supplied.
What colour is the inside of the shade?
Halo gold. The taupe outer keeps the light neutral in the room while the gold lining warms what falls straight down.
How do I clean the faux silk?
Dust it dry. A soft brush or a vacuum nozzle held just off the surface is enough, and cleaning fluids or a damp cloth should be kept away from the fabric.
