Description
Small and oval in plan, this shade in faux silk carries an ivory pearl face with a white laminate lining, so the light it throws stays warm and clean. The oval footprint takes up less depth than a round shade of similar width, which matters on a narrow bedside table or a shallow shelf. We sell it as a non-electric shade, ready for a base you already own or one you are buying alongside it.
It suits bedside lamps and small table lamps in bedrooms and studies, and it is equally at home on a pendant flex above a hall table. We would choose a golf ball LED for the host fitting, since it sits within the shade's proportions and leaves the fabric to do the work. Either side of a bed they read neatly; on its own the shade is quiet enough not to compete with patterned walls or a busy shelf. Ivory pearl sits comfortably alongside cream, oak and warm grey.
Faux silk gives the outside a soft sheen, while the white laminate lining keeps the inner surface bright. Weight is slight, so the shade tips the balance of a small base very little. Keep it looking fresh with a dry brush: a clean pastry brush or a soft brush attachment on low suction, worked gently around the shade rather than dragged across it. Avoid damp cloths, polishes and sprays, which mark faux silk. It carries a one year warranty. The wider range runs to round cylinder shades in black, white and grey, and an organza cylinder in cream, if you like the idea of mixing shapes across a room. The shade is supplied on its own, without a base or lamp.
