Description

A lampshade, 40cm wide, in blush. Getting a shade wrong is almost always a fit problem rather than a taste problem. Check the ring your fitting takes before the diameter, then hold the bottom width against the space rather than the height. At 40cm wide it is about the width of a laptop. A shade is the cheapest way to change a light. The fitting stays, the wiring stays, and the character of the room moves — which is why replacing shades is usually the first thing worth doing in a house you have just moved into.

Buying the imitation deliberately makes sense where a natural cotton would fade or mark — a sunny room, or a house with a dog. It is lined in blush, faux cotton lining: an unlined shade throws the outline of the bulb onto the wall, a lined one turns it into an even wash. Shade reducer: Yes.

The light you actually see is the light that comes THROUGH the shade, not the light from the bulb. That is why the same bulb reads warm behind a cream fabric and cold behind a white one. Dust is the whole of the maintenance and it matters more than it sounds: an even film of dust on a shade dims a room by more than most people would guess, and a soft brush restores it in a minute.

Fit is the only thing that goes wrong with a shade bought online, and it comes down to the ring rather than the size: check whether your fitting takes a ring that sits on the lampholder or one that clamps the bulb. The diameter at the bottom then decides how much light reaches the floor.
