Description
The shade here is faux silk in black, lined with a white laminate that pushes light back down into the room, and it sits on a polished chrome fixture that holds it close to the ceiling. The drum measures 40cm across and 18cm deep, so it reads as a proper shade rather than a shallow cap, while the semi flush build keeps the fitting neat overhead. Light falls generously downwards and catches the chrome above.
We reach for this in hallways, landings and bedrooms where a pendant would hang too low, and it earns its place over a small dining table in a flat with ordinary ceiling heights. It takes one E27 lamp, and we would fit an LED GLS in a warm white for an even glow through the fabric. Dimming is possible with a compatible lamp and dimmer, both chosen separately, and we are glad to talk through the pairing.
The metalwork is polished to a bright mirror shine that answers chrome taps, handles and mirror frames elsewhere in the house, and the fabric drum softens it so the fitting does not glare. For upkeep, lift dust from the shade with a soft brush and give the chrome a quick buff with a dry cloth; sprays and creams have no business near the fabric. Keep it to dry rooms indoors, away from bathrooms, porches and anywhere steam gathers. It carries a one year warranty. Elsewhere in the range we stock universal semi flush fixtures and linear pendants in antique brass and satin nickel, which makes matching light across a hall and stair simple enough. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What lamp should I use?
One E27 lamp, up to 20W. An LED GLS in the A60 shape is the sensible choice and is the one we would fit.
How far does it drop from the ceiling?
Overall height is 380mm, with the chrome body accounting for 180mm of that and the shade making up the rest.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use a dimmable lamp with a compatible dimmer. Neither is supplied with the light.
What is the shade made of?
Faux silk in black on the outside, with a white laminate lining inside to reflect light downwards.
How do I clean the shade?
A soft brush or the upholstery attachment on a vacuum at low suction is enough. Avoid water, sprays and solvents on the fabric.
How wide is the shade?
400mm in diameter and 180mm deep, so it suits a hallway or bedroom ceiling without crowding it.
