Leela Square Pleated Lampshade White 10/20cm x 15.6cm

The Leela is a square-profile pleated fabric lampshade in white, measuring 10cm at the top opening, 20cm at the base and 15.6cm in height. The shade features vertical pleats running from top to bottom, creating a geometric structure that adds visual texture whilst maintaining a clean, minimal appearance. A white fabric lining diffuses light evenly through the pleated exterior.

Designed for table lamps, wall lights and small pendant fittings where a compact shade is needed, the Leela works in bedside positions, hallway console lamps and bathroom wall lights. The shade is rated for bulbs up to 40W, which suits standard E14 and E27 candle or golf ball LED bulbs in the 4-8W range. A reducer ring is included, allowing the shade to fit multiple lamp holder sizes without additional adapters.

The white fabric reflects the maximum amount of light upwards and downwards, making the Leela suitable for rooms needing functional task light rather than just ambient glow. The pleated construction holds its shape under heat from the bulb and the lightweight 0.23kg build suits wall-mounted arms without overloading the bracket. The square profile creates symmetry when fitted to lamps with angular bases or rectangular wall plates.

What bulb does the Leela shade take?

The shade is rated for bulbs up to 40W and suits standard E14 or E27 lamp holders. Most users pair it with a 4-8W LED candle or golf ball bulb in warm white (2700K-3000K). A reducer ring is included for fitting different holder sizes.

Is the shade suitable for wall lights?

Yes. At 0.23kg the Leela is light enough for wall-mounted arms and the square profile provides visual balance on rectangular wall plates. The white fabric reflects light efficiently, making it functional for hallway and bathroom wall lights.

How is the pleated fabric cleaned?

Use a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner set to low power, working gently along the pleats. For spot cleaning, a barely-damp microfibre cloth with plain water can be used, but avoid soaking the fabric and allow it to dry fully before switching the lamp back on.

Can the shade be used on a pendant fitting?

Yes, provided the pendant uses a compatible lamp holder size. The reducer ring allows the shade to fit standard E14 and E27 pendant holders. The compact 15.6cm height suits low-ceiling positions or clusters where multiple small shades are grouped.
