Description

The Leela is a square pleated lampshade in black fabric, measuring 138mm top diameter, 250mm bottom diameter and 206mm height. The shade is built around a metal frame wrapped in pleated black fabric, with vertical pleats running from top to bottom giving the shade a defined geometric structure rather than smooth curves. A white lining inside the shade diffuses light outwards while preventing the bulb from being visible through the fabric.

Designed for table and floor lamp bases that take a standard ES (E27) or BC (B22) bulb holder, the shade fits lamp bases with a threaded adapter or clip-on gimbal fitting. The 138mm top opening accommodates most standard lamp harps and carriers. The square profile sits naturally on bases with angular or geometric forms — ceramic cubes, stone plinths, metal tripods — where a round shade would create visual mismatch.

The pleating gives the shade structural rigidity and creates vertical shadow lines when the lamp is lit, adding texture to the light cast on surrounding surfaces. The black fabric absorbs ambient light during the day, making the shade recede visually when unlit, then becomes a defined silhouette when the lamp is switched on in the evening. At 340g the shade is light enough to sit on slender bases without toppling.

Frequently Asked

What lamp bases does this shade fit?

The shade fits standard ES (E27) and BC (B22) lamp bases with a threaded adapter or clip-on gimbal fitting. The 138mm top opening accommodates most lamp harps and carriers. Check your base accepts a shade with a 138mm top diameter before ordering.

What bulb wattage can it take?

The shade is rated for bulbs up to 60W. Most users pair it with an LED bulb between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K, which provides adequate light output without generating excessive heat inside the fabric shade.

Is the shade lined?

Yes. A white lining inside the shade diffuses light outwards and prevents the bulb from being visible through the black fabric. The lining also stops light from pooling directly below the shade, spreading illumination more evenly around the lamp.

How is the pleated fabric maintained?

Dust the pleats gently with a soft brush or use a vacuum cleaner on low power with a brush attachment to remove surface dust from between the folds. Avoid water or fabric cleaners, as these can stain the pleated fabric or cause the pleats to collapse.
