Description
A bell silhouette in clear crystal, warmed with French gold, this is a dressing for a fitting rather than a light in its own right, so it borrows its glow from whatever it sits on. At 19cm across and 24cm tall it stays neat, and the crystal breaks light into a scatter of small bright points instead of the flat wash a fabric shade gives.
We keep shades like this for the jobs where fabric would go quiet: a small pendant over a hall table, a bedside light that wants a little sparkle in the evening, or a table lamp on a sideboard in a dining room. It works on a suspended fitting and on a lamp base alike, so a shade bought for a bedroom can move to a hall later. It suits period rooms and plainer modern ones equally. A warm white lamp in the host fitting flatters the gold, and it is worth having the host on a dimmer if the room is used late.
The crystal is a select grade, and the French gold finish gives the clear glass something warmer to sit against. Dust settles between the crystals, so a soft dry brush or a feather duster does more good here than a cloth; on the gold, wipe with a lightly damp cloth and dry it straight away, keeping sprays and cream cleaners away from both. It carries a one year warranty. We stock the same bell in antique brass, and the range runs to ball, cone, cylinder and drum if you would rather repeat a shape through a room. No lamp comes with it, since the light belongs to the host fitting.

Frequently Asked
Is a lamp included with this shade?
No. It is a shade only, with no electrical parts, so the lamp comes from the fitting it is used with. Keep that lamp to 100W or less.
What size are the fitting holes?
The shade has holes of 27mm and 42mm, which is why it works with both a suspended fitting and a lamp base. Check the measurement on your host fitting before ordering.
How large is it overall?
It measures 190mm in diameter and 240mm in height, and weighs around a kilogram.
Can I use it in a bathroom?
No. It is intended for dry rooms indoors, away from steam and splashing, so a bedroom, hallway, dining room or sitting room is the right place for it.
How should the crystal and the gold be cleaned?
Switch the host fitting off and let everything cool first. Lift dust from between the crystals with a soft dry brush, then wipe the gold with a barely damp cloth and dry it at once. No solvents, sprays or abrasive creams.
Is there a warranty?
It carries a one year warranty.
