Description
Sigma is a small decorative shade piece in satin nickel, a slender upright detail made to pair with a shade of matching height. The finish is a soft silver-grey with a low sheen, so it picks up light gently rather than throwing a hard reflection. It is light in the hand and shallow in profile, sitting close so the outline of the clip stays clean. There is no wiring and no lamp holder here; it is purely a finishing detail, and the light comes from whichever fitting the clip is dressed on. The shade is not included: the photographs show the clip on a plain drum; the lamp shades are sold separately.
We reach for it when a plain shade needs something to tie it to metalwork already in the room, whether that is a nickel lamp base or the arm of a wall light. It suits bedrooms and sitting rooms where several shades are in play and you want them to read as a set, and buying a few and spacing them evenly around a drum is a common way to use them. In a study or on a hall table it gives a small lamp a little more presence without adding bulk. It is intended to work with shades of 20cm in height.
The satin nickel runs across the whole piece, and at this scale the effect stays crisp rather than heavy. For upkeep, keep a soft dry cloth to hand and wipe along the length now and then; skip creams, sprays and anything abrasive, all of which will dull the sheen over time. It carries a one year warranty. The range covers a few different shade heights, and we also stock it in antique brass, chrome and satin black if a warmer or darker metal would sit better with the rest of the room. the clip itself is bought separately.

Frequently Asked
What size shade does this suit?
It is made for shades 20cm tall. The piece itself measures 200mm high by 50mm wide, with a projection of 10mm.
Does it take a bulb?
No. It is non-electrical, with no lamp holder and no wiring. The lamp is chosen to suit the light fitting or lamp base the clip sits on.
Can I use more than one on a single shade?
Yes, and many people do. Two or more spaced evenly around a drum shade gives a repeating detail rather than a single accent.
How do I keep the finish looking right?
A soft dry cloth is all it needs. Avoid metal polishes, solvents and abrasive pads, as satin finishes lose their even sheen when rubbed hard.
Is it heavy enough to pull a shade out of shape?
No. It weighs just 0.03kg, so it adds very little to the clip it is fitted to.
What other finishes are there?
Alongside satin nickel we stock antique brass, chrome and satin black within the range, across a choice of shade heights.
