Description
A 40cm drum shade in faux silk, black on the outside with a white laminate lining that throws light back down into the room. A frosted acrylic diffuser closes the underside, so the lamp is screened and the light that reaches a table or floor is softened rather than bare. Suspension and ceiling plate are in polished chrome, bright enough to catch the light without arguing with the shade. It takes an E27 lamp, and we would choose a GLS-shaped LED here, warm white, up to 20W.
The proportions are easy to place: wide enough to read as the main light in a room, but not so wide that it swamps a small dining table. We reach for it over a kitchen table, in a hall, or in a bedroom where a shallow ceiling fitting would look mean, and it suits a stairwell too, since the chrome suspension covers a long span of drops. Fitted with a dimmable lamp and a compatible dimmer it will come down to a quiet evening level. Indoors and in dry rooms only, so keep it clear of bathroom zones and covered porches.
The shade is a laminated build, black outside and white within, sitting on a chrome frame with the acrylic diffuser at the lower rim. Polished chrome shows fingerprints more than a brushed finish, so a dry cloth over the plate and flex now and then keeps it looking sharp; the shade needs only a soft brush along its outer face, and we would keep sprays and damp cloths away from the laminate altogether. It carries a one year warranty. The wider Baymont range takes in flush and semi flush fittings in polished chrome, white, antique brass and satin nickel, along with linear pendants, so a house can be kept consistent from hall to bedroom. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What size lamp should I use?
One E27 lamp, up to 20W. We suggest a GLS A60 shaped LED, which sits neatly inside the shade and behind the diffuser.
How far down does it hang?
The drop runs from 390mm at its shortest to 3310mm fully extended, measured from the ceiling, so it covers everything from a low hall to a stairwell.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use a dimmable lamp and a dimmer matched to it. Neither the lamp nor the dimmer comes with the fitting.
What are the shade dimensions?
The shade measures 40cm across by 18cm deep, with a total body height of 355mm including the chrome plate and fittings.
How do I clean the shade?
Dust it with a soft brush or a dry cloth. Avoid water, sprays and solvents, which can mark the laminate and the acrylic diffuser.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated for dry indoor rooms and should not go into a bathroom zone or any damp or exposed position.
