Description
Faux silk in a soft nude beige wraps the outer face of this shallow drum, with a moonlight lining inside that warms the light as it passes through. The shade measures 40cm across, wide enough to read as a proper shade rather than a cover, and the antique brass frame holds it up close to the ceiling. Underneath, a frosted acrylic diffuser rimmed in antique brass closes off the base, so the lamp stays hidden and the downward light is softened. A single E27 lampholder sits within.
We reach for this where a pendant would hang too low: bedrooms, landings, hallways and smaller rooms with modest ceiling heights. The light it gives is gentle and diffused rather than a sharp beam, which suits spaces meant for winding down, and the fabric keeps the fitting quiet against a painted or papered ceiling. It takes lamps up to 20W, and we would fit an LED GLS in a warm white. Dimming is possible with a compatible lamp and dimmer, both chosen separately.
The metalwork wears an antique brass finish with the slightly muted, aged tone the name suggests, and the trim around the diffuser matches it. Keep the fabric fresh with a soft brush or a vacuum nozzle on its lowest setting, and give the acrylic a wipe with a dry microfibre cloth once the power is off and the lamp has cooled. Fabric and acrylic like dry rooms, so keep it away from bathroom steam and anywhere exposed to weather. It carries a one year warranty. Elsewhere in the range we stock plain universal semi flush fittings and linear pendants in polished chrome, satin nickel and satin black, useful if you are running one look through several rooms and want to change only the shade. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What size lamp should I use?
One E27 lamp of up to 20W. An LED GLS in the A60 shape is the recommended choice and sits neatly behind the diffuser.
Can I dim it?
Yes, provided you pair a dimmable lamp with a matching dimmer switch. Neither the lamp nor the dimmer comes with the fitting.
How far does it drop below the ceiling?
The overall height is 380mm, with the shade itself 180mm deep and 400mm in diameter.
What is the shade made of?
A dual faux silk, nude beige on the outside and moonlight on the inner face, over a frame finished in antique brass. The diffuser beneath is frosted acrylic.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated for dry indoor rooms only, so choose it for bedrooms, hallways and living spaces instead.
How do I clean the fabric?
Dust it gently with a soft brush or a vacuum on low suction. Avoid water and sprays on the faux silk, and only clean once the power is off and the lamp is cool.
