Description
A drum shade in taupe faux silk sits on an antique brass fitting, with a halo gold lining inside that warms the light as it spreads. The shade measures 40cm across, and beneath it a frosted acrylic diffuser, ringed in antique brass, softens the downward glare. Being semi flush, the whole fitting holds close to the ceiling rather than hanging on a rod or a length of flex, which gives a broad, quiet wash of light overhead.
We reach for this in rooms where a pendant would sit too low: landings, hallways, bedrooms, and over a dressing table or a reading chair. It takes an E27 lamp, so an LED GLS is the natural choice, and with a compatible lamp and dimmer switch fitted the level can be brought down for the evening. The taupe and gold pairing suits warm schemes, oak and walnut furniture, brass door handles and softer paint colours, though it settles just as happily into a plain white room.
The outer face of the shade is taupe, the inner face halo gold, and the acrylic diffuser closes the base so the light leaves both through the fabric and straight down. Dust the fabric with a soft brush or the upholstery head of a vacuum, and wipe the diffuser and the brasswork with a dry cloth when the power is off and the lamp has cooled. Fit a lamp of no more than 20W. It carries a one year warranty. Elsewhere in the range we stock the same antique brass as a linear pendant, and as a smaller universal semi flush fitting for anyone who would rather pick their own shade. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
How far does it hang below the ceiling?
The overall height is 380mm, with the metal body accounting for 180mm of that. The shade diameter is 400mm.
What lamp should I use?
One E27 lamp, with an LED GLS (A60) shape recommended, rated at up to 20W. Lamps are supplied separately.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit a dimmable lamp and a matching dimmer switch. Neither the lamp nor a dimmer is included.
What is the diffuser made from?
Acrylic, in a frosted finish with an antique brass trim, sitting at the base of the shade to spread light downwards.
Is the shade two-tone?
It is. The outer face is taupe faux silk and the lining is halo gold, so reflected light picks up a warm tone.
How heavy is it?
It weighs 1.1kg.
