Description
A shallow curved cone pressed from metal and painted a soft beige stone, a warm neutral that reads closer to putty than to cream. At 21cm across and just 7cm deep, the profile stays low and wide, so light spills outwards as much as it drops. This is a shade on its own, with no wiring and no lampholder, sized to sit on a host fitting that provides the electrics.
We keep it as the partner for the Dreifa curved over arm floor lamps in the same range, which are supplied without a shade so you can choose the finish yourself. The broad, open mouth suits a reading corner: stand the floor lamp behind an armchair and the cone lays light across a book and the arm of the chair rather than across the whole room. It also earns its place on a table base beside a sofa, or in a bedroom where the glow wants keeping low. An LED GLS or tubular lamp in the host fitting is what we would reach for.
The shade is metal throughout, with a painted surface that holds its matt beige stone tone and gives the cone a little heft in the hand without making it awkward to lift on and off. Lift dust from the outside with a dry duster, and wipe the inner face now and then with a barely damp cloth, no solvents and nothing abrasive. Indoors, in rooms that stay dry, is where it belongs. It carries a one year warranty. If you want a wider pool of light, the same shallow cone is made in a larger diameter, and this smaller size is also offered in satin black, pewter, satin nickel and silver, painted bronze, antique brass and antique copper. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
Does this shade come with a lamp base or floor lamp?
No, it is sold on its own. The Dreifa curved over arm floor lamps in the same range are supplied without a shade, so the two are bought together.
What size is the fitting hole?
The hole in the top of the shade measures 42mm in diameter, so it needs a host fitting made to take a shade of that pattern.
How big is it and how much does it weigh?
It is 210mm in diameter and 70mm high, and weighs 0.22kg, so it is easy to handle when swapping shades over.
Which lamp should go in the host fitting?
An LED lamp in either GLS or tubular form works well and keeps the shade from warming up as much as an older filament type would.
Is there a larger version of the same shape?
Yes, the shallow cone is also made at 300mm in diameter, including in this beige stone finish.
How should I clean the painted finish?
A dry duster for the outside and a barely damp cloth for the inside is enough. Avoid solvents and scouring creams, which can dull the paint.
