Description
The Capoliveri-E lampshade is a compact steel shade in black, shaped as a rounded dome that rises into a tall, straight cylindrical collar. It stands 17cm tall and measures 17.5cm in diameter, so it is almost as tall as it is wide, which gives it a sturdy, workshop-style outline. Steel holds its shape well, and the black runs inside the dome as well as across the outside, so the shade looks just as neat when you glance up into it.
As a shade rather than a complete light, it suits anyone refreshing a lamp or pendant they already own, or putting together a light of their own. The open dome sends the light downwards, so it works well over a kitchen island, a dining table or a desk, where you want the glow on the surface rather than spread across the ceiling. Its modest size keeps it in proportion over a smaller table, and a row of matching shades looks tidy along a breakfast bar. This is an indoor shade for dry rooms.
The body is black steel, and the shade comes in at 0.386KG packed, so it asks very little of the lamp or pendant that carries it. A plain steel shade like this has no fabric to sag or discolour, which makes it a hard-wearing choice for a busy kitchen. We give its height and diameter only, so before you order, measure the fitting on your own light against the collar to be sure the two match.
