{"product_id":"dia-jute-lampshade-ink-large","title":"Dia Large Jute Lampshade - Ink","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Dia in ink is coarse jute dyed to a deep blue black, formed as a tapered drum and lined pale on the inside. This is the large: 21.5cm tall, 35cm across the top and 40.5cm across the base. The dye sits unevenly in a fibre this open, so the weave shows through as lighter flecks and the surface has movement in it rather than reading as a flat dark panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForty centimetres is floor lamp width. On an ordinary table lamp this size overhangs the surface; on a floor lamp base over a metre tall it is in proportion with the column, and a dark shade on a tall base is a different proposition from a pale one. Very little light passes out through the dyed jute, so almost all of it leaves through the top and bottom openings: a defined pool on the floor and a wash up the wall, rather than a glow from the shade itself. At 21.5cm deep it hides the lampholder from a seated eye. It weighs 0.66kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJute is a plant fibre, coarse and hard wearing, woven and dyed before being formed over the frame, so the depth of colour and the grain differ from shade to shade. The Dia range runs from small to extra large in this ink and again in natural jute. No bulb, base or fitting is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter (top)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter (base)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJute\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLampshade use\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTable Lamps, Floor Lamps \u0026amp; Ceiling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.66kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the large too big for a table lamp?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor most, yes. At 40.5cm across the base it overhangs an ordinary side table.

The dyed jute keeps most of it inside and sends it out of the open top and bottom, so you get a pool below and a wash above rather than an even glow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow dark is ink?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA deep blue black. In daylight the open weave lets the fibre show through as lighter flecks, so it reads nearer charcoal; lit at night it goes darker.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I handle it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHold it by the fitting and never by the jute, because taking the weight on the fabric pulls a shade this wide out of shape.
