Description
A plain grey cylinder shade sits over antique brass metalwork, held close to the ceiling so the room stays clear overhead. The drum is lined in white laminate, which lifts and spreads the light rather than letting it pool, while the woven face softens what comes through. There is no flare or taper to the shade, just a straight-sided cylinder above a shallow ceiling cup, and the warm tone of the brass reads against the cool grey cloth. At 40cm across it gives a broad, steady wash of ambient light from a single E27 lamp.
We reach for this where a ceiling sits a little low and a hanging pendant would be in the way: hallways, landings, small bedrooms and box rooms, or the quiet end of a kitchen that wants even light rather than a bright point. It suits anyone after something calm and unfussy overhead, and the neutral grey works as easily with painted walls as with paper. It is dimmable, given a suitable lamp and a compatible dimmer, so the level can drop away in the evening without changing the fitting. We would run an LED GLS lamp in ours and leave it at that.
The shade is terylene with cotton over a metal frame and lined in PVC, and the hardware behind it is iron in the antique brass finish. Cleaning wants to stay dry: a soft cloth drawn over the fabric and the brasswork, no detergents, nothing coarse or scratchy, and the light switched off and cool before you begin. It carries a one year warranty. The shade attaches to the body when you unpack it, and the lamp is yours to choose to suit the room.

Frequently Asked
What lamp does it take, and is one supplied?
It takes one E27 lamp, rated 1 x 20W max, and no lamp is supplied. An LED GLS lamp is the sensible choice here.
Can I dim it?
Yes, provided you use a dimmable lamp with a compatible dimmer. No dimmer is included with the fitting.
How far does it drop from the ceiling?
Overall height is 380mm, with the shade body accounting for 180mm of that. The height is fixed rather than adjustable.
What is the shade made from?
Terylene with cotton fabric over a metal frame, with a PVC lining in white laminate. The visible face is grey.
How should I clean it?
Wipe with a dry cloth only, with the light switched off and unlit. Avoid cleaning detergents and any rough or abrasive material, both of which will mark the fabric and the brass finish.
Will it work on a sloped ceiling?
No, this one is intended for a level ceiling only.
