Description
The Bevdon is a tapered lamp shade in ivory 100% silk, finished with a box pleat design and hand-stitched pinch pleats for a considered, classic look. It is made in five sizes, 20cm, 25cm, 30cm, 35cm and 40cm, so you can match it neatly to a table or floor lamp. The 25cm shade measures 165mm high with a 255mm bottom diameter, and the silk taped edges and cream polyester lining give it a soft, warm glow. The 25cm size has a double pinch pleat, while the other sizes carry a single pinch pleat.
Silk gives a richer, warmer light than a plain fabric, so the Bevdon suits a bedroom, a living room or a study where you want a gentle, homely feel. It looks at home on a turned wood or ceramic base, and the ivory tone sits happily with brass, cream and natural materials. The smaller sizes work on a table lamp, while the larger ones bring a soft presence to a bigger base, and the pinch pleats add texture that catches the light beautifully in the evening.
The shade is made from 100% silk with silk taped edges and a cream polyester lining, and the pleats are hand-stitched rather than machine-formed. The 20cm and 25cm sizes have a fixed gimbal, while the 30cm, 35cm and 40cm sizes carry a reversible gimbal for flexibility on different bases. Keep it clean with a gentle brush or a light vacuum on a low setting, and keep it dry, as silk does not take to water. The pinch-pleat look runs through the range, so you can match shades across a pair of lamps for a settled finish.
