Lyria 15cm Globe Glass Light Shade - White

This is a replacement globe shade for the Lyria range, a sphere of white glass 15cm across and 15cm high. It is the shade alone: the pendant suspension set that holds it and the bulb are both sold separately, and the suspension set is needed before the globe becomes a working light. We list it for the range's G9 or large LED pendant suspension set, and for nothing else, so check which of the two you have or plan to buy. At 0.25KG it is a light piece of glass to handle when you change it.

There are two good reasons to buy it. The first is a broken or chipped globe on a Lyria pendant you already own, where a new shade brings the light back without replacing the whole fitting. The second is building a new pendant from the suspension set, choosing this white globe for its soft, even look. At 15cm it is a compact size, so it sits comfortably over a bedside, along a hallway or on a landing, and several hung at different heights make a neat cluster over a dining table. Each globe needs its own suspension set.

The shade is made of white glass, a material that spreads a bulb's light across its whole surface rather than showing it as a bright point, so the globe glows evenly instead of glaring. Glass does not yellow with age, which matters for a white shade that will be seen every evening. It is a smooth, plain sphere with no pattern or decoration, which lets it suit most styles of room. Choose your bulb to suit the suspension set, since the shade itself carries no light source. That set is a mains product and is installed by a qualified electrician.

Does the globe come with a lamp holder or bulb?

No. You receive the white glass globe on its own. The pendant suspension set and the bulb are both sold separately, and the suspension set is needed to hang it.

Which suspension set does this shade fit?

We list it for the Lyria range's G9 or large LED pendant suspension set. The maker lists one of these as required, and we make no claim for any other fitting.

How big is the globe?

It measures 15cm across and 15cm high. That is a compact size, and it works well where space is tight or where several globes hang together in a cluster.

How heavy is the glass shade?

The globe weighs 0.25KG, so it is easy to handle when you are replacing a broken shade or fitting a new one.

Is the white glass likely to yellow over time?

No. Glass does not yellow with age, so this white globe keeps its colour for as long as you have the shade.

Can I use it as a replacement for a broken Lyria globe?

Yes, provided your pendant uses the range's G9 or large LED suspension set, which is the set this 15cm white globe is listed to fit.
