Description
Slim and upright, this is a drum in the narrow sense: 13cm across and 31cm tall, so it reads as a slender column of clear crystal rather than a wide hat. The crystal sits in antique brass, a warm, slightly darkened gold that stops the sparkle turning cold. Lit, it throws small points of light onto the surfaces around it; unlit, it still catches whatever daylight is in the room. It is non-electric, a shade on its own, and we reach for it where a plain fabric shade would sit too quietly.
We would use it over a bedside table, in a modest hallway, or in a run above a kitchen island where the narrow profile keeps sightlines clear. It is made to suit either a hanging suspension or a table lamp base, so the shade can move around the house as rooms change. The lamp is your choice: we would fit a warm white LED GLS, and 20W is the ceiling. Because the crystal is clear, the lamp shows through it, so a tidy glass envelope looks far better here than anything long or angular.
Antique brass and clear crystal make up the whole piece, and the pairing is the point: metal warmth read against bright glass. Keep dust off with a dry lint-free cloth and use a barely damp one only where fingerprints have built up, with nothing abrasive going near the brass. It carries a one year warranty. Lamps are not included. We also stock the same drum in polished chrome and French gold, and the range runs to ball, bell, cone, cylinder and trapezium shapes if this outline is not quite the one for your room.

Frequently Asked
What are the shade's dimensions?
It measures 130mm in diameter and 310mm in height, giving a tall, narrow drum rather than a wide one.
Does it come with a lamp or any electrics?
No. It is a non-electric shade only, so the lampholder and flex belong to the fitting or base you pair it with. We suggest an LED GLS (A60) lamp, rated no higher than 20W.
What size is the opening?
The shade hole is 27/42mm, which covers the common pendant and lamp base fittings in this style.
What is the shade made from?
Clear crystal set in an antique brass finish, with a stated weight of 0.9kg.
How should I clean the crystal?
Switch the lamp off and let it cool first, then use a dry lint-free cloth for dust and a barely damp cloth for marks. Avoid sprays and abrasive creams, which will dull the brass.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20 and belongs in dry rooms, away from splashes and steam.
