Description
A shallow cone in metal with a gently curved profile, 30cm across at the open mouth and low in the hand rather than deep. The outer face is satin nickel, a soft grey sheen that picks up light without glare, while the inner face is painted silver to keep the reflected light bright and neutral. The shallow shape spreads light outwards as much as down. It is a plain, unfussy form that does not compete with whatever base it sits on.
We would pair it with one of the curved over arm floor lamps in the same range, which are sold without a shade for exactly this reason, and it works just as well on a table lamp base with a bit of heft to it. It suits a reading corner beside an armchair, a hallway console, or any spot where the light wants to fall on the page rather than wash the whole room. In the fitting beneath it we would choose an LED GLS or a slim tubular lamp, both of which sit comfortably under a cone this shallow.
The shade is pressed and painted metal throughout, light to handle and finished evenly inside and out. For cleaning, a soft cloth run over the nickel is usually all it needs; if fingerprints show, a barely damp cloth followed by a dry buff will clear them, and we would keep scouring creams well away from the painted inner face. It carries a one year warranty. We stock the same curved cone in a smaller size in this finish, and in this size in painted antique brass, painted antique copper, beige stone and satin black. It is a shade only, so the base and lamp come separately.

Frequently Asked
What size is this shade?
It measures 300mm across the open mouth and 115mm from top to bottom, so it reads as broad and shallow rather than tall.
What size fitting hole does it have?
The hole at the top of the cone is 42mm in diameter, which suits standard lamp holders used on floor and table lamp bases.
Is it two different colours?
Yes. The outside is satin nickel and the inside is painted silver, so the light it reflects stays clean and neutral.
Which lamp should the base beneath it take?
An LED GLS A60 or a tubular T45 works well; both keep a low profile under a shallow cone.
How heavy is it?
It weighs 0.39kg, so most standard lamp bases will carry it without feeling top-heavy.
Can it be used in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. It is rated for dry rooms only and should be kept away from steam, splashes and open weather.
