Description
A round faux silk shade of 40cm sits close to the ceiling on a polished chrome semi flush frame, finished in raw cocoa on the outside with Grecian bronze inside. That pairing gives the fitting two moods: a soft, warm brown while the light is off, and a deeper bronze warmth once the lamp behind it is lit. Light passes through the fabric and spills from the lower edge, so the effect is diffused rather than directional, and the chrome frame keeps a bright accent at the ceiling. It takes an E27 lamp, and we would reach for a GLS A60 LED here for an even fill across the drum.
This is one we suggest for rooms where a hanging pendant would sit too low: landings, hallways, bedrooms, a small dining room or a study with a modest ceiling height. The shade is wide enough to read as the main light in a bedroom or a box room, while the shallow body keeps everything well clear of head height near a doorway. It will dim if you pair a compatible lamp with a compatible dimmer, though neither of those comes with the fitting, which is worth planning for if you want a lower setting in the evening.
The shade is fabric over a rigid form, and the metalwork is polished to a clear, reflective chrome. For the fabric, a light going over with a soft brush or the upholstery tool on a vacuum lifts dust without dragging the weave; the chrome wants nothing more than a dry cloth, with the power off first. It carries a one year warranty. Elsewhere in the range you will find universal flush and semi flush plates and linear pendants in antique brass, satin nickel and satin black, all made to take a shade of your own choosing, so a matching hallway and stairwell scheme is straightforward to put together. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What size is the shade?
The shade measures 400mm across, and the overall drop from the ceiling is 380mm, with the metal body accounting for 180mm of that.
What lamp should I use?
One E27 lamp, up to 20W. An LED GLS A60 is the shape we would choose, as it sits neatly within the drum and lights the fabric evenly.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use a dimmable lamp with a dimmer matched to it. No dimmer is supplied with the fitting.
What are the two shade colours?
Raw cocoa on the outer face and Grecian bronze on the inner, so the tone shifts once the lamp is switched on.
How do I clean the faux silk?
Switch off at the wall and let everything cool, then brush the fabric gently or use a vacuum upholstery tool. Keep water and sprays away from the shade.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, so keep it to dry rooms away from splashing and steam.
