Florence Round Floor Lamp Shade White - 38cm x 26cm

The Florence is a 38cm diameter white fabric lampshade with a 26cm height, presenting a cylindrical drum profile designed for floor lamp bases. The smooth white fabric wraps a wire frame, diffusing light evenly from bulbs up to 100W while keeping the shade itself lightweight at 0.9kg. The shade fits standard floor lamp fittings with a duplex ring or spider fitting (check your lamp base for compatibility before ordering).

Designed for living rooms, bedrooms and reading corners where a floor lamp provides ambient or task lighting, the Florence pairs with metal, wooden or ceramic bases in finishes from brushed brass to matt black. The 38cm diameter suits mid-height floor lamps positioned next to sofas, armchairs or between a bed and wall where the shade sits at shoulder height when seated. The white fabric softens the light output, reducing glare while maintaining enough brightness for reading.

The fabric is a tightly-woven white textile that holds its shape on the wire frame without sagging, and the cylindrical form means light projects evenly in all directions rather than being concentrated upwards or downwards. The 26cm height gives vertical balance on most standard floor lamp stems without appearing top-heavy or undersized. The shade accepts any E27 or BC bulb up to 100W, though most users pair it with 8-12W LED bulbs in warm white (2700K-3000K) for comfortable ambient lighting.

What fitting type does this shade use?

The Florence is designed for standard floor lamp fittings, typically a duplex ring or spider fitting. Check your existing floor lamp base to confirm compatibility — the shade does not include the electrical fitting or bulb holder, only the fabric shade itself.

What bulb wattage should I use?

The shade is rated for bulbs up to 100W, but most modern LED bulbs provide ample light at 8-12W. A warm white LED (2700K-3000K) between 8-12W gives comfortable ambient lighting for reading or general living room use without overheating the fabric.

Is the shade suitable for floor lamps in bedrooms?

Yes. The 38cm diameter and 26cm height suit mid-height floor lamps positioned next to beds or in reading corners. The white fabric diffuses light softly, reducing glare while maintaining enough brightness for bedside reading.

How is the fabric shade cleaned?

Dust the fabric gently with a soft brush or dry microfibre cloth. For marks, use a barely-damp cloth with water only — avoid household sprays or chemical cleaners, which can stain or discolour the white fabric. Allow the shade to dry fully before switching the lamp back on.
