Description

A pleated lampshade, 35cm wide, in black. A tapered shade throws more light down than out, which is what you want over a reading chair and not what you want if the lamp is the only light in the room. At 35cm wide it is about the width of a laptop. Changing a shade changes a room without touching the wiring, which makes it the cheapest worthwhile change in a house you have just moved into.

A dark finish reads as a shape rather than a surface, so the outline does the work and the detail recedes. Against a pale wall that is graphic; against a dark one the piece almost disappears. Cotton breathes and softens with use, and it takes dye in a way that reads warmer than a synthetic of the same colour. It creases, which is either the charm or the objection depending on the room. It is lined in taupe, cotton: an unlined shade throws the outline of the bulb onto the wall, a lined one turns it into an even wash. The shade tapers from 35cm at the bottom to 29cm at the top. 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. A fabric shade fades from the inside out rather than the outside in, because the bulb is closer than the window. A lining slows that considerably, which is most of what a lining is for.
