Description
Brown oxide is a warm, rusted sort of brown, closer to weathered iron than to chocolate, and it does the quiet work of adding a little depth to a plain shade. This is a small decorative piece, narrow and upright, that clips over the edge of a shade and sits close against it. The width is modest, so several can be spaced around a shade for a repeating detail, or a single one placed at the front where it will be noticed. Nothing about it is loud.
It is sized for shades 22cm tall, which puts it on table lamps and bedside lamps rather than on tall floor standing shades. We reach for small details like this when a room has gone slightly flat: plain lamps either side of a bed, or a hall table lamp that wants a touch of colour without a new shade being bought. Being non-electric, it changes nothing about the lamp or its wiring, and it lifts off again cleanly, so it can move to another shade whenever you rearrange.
It is light in the hand, finished in brown oxide across both faces, and shaped to hold its own position without tools or adhesive. To keep it looking right, lift it away from the shade and run a dry cloth over it; no polish and no water, and set the shade itself back square before you refit. It carries a one year warranty. We stock the Sigma cylinder shades alongside it in faux silk, gold leaf and silver leaf finishes, so shade and detail can be chosen in one go, and a set of these reads best when they all sit at the same height around the shade.

Frequently Asked
What size shade does it fit?
It is intended for shades 22cm tall, and it measures 220mm high by 60mm wide with a projection of 10mm, so it sits flat against the shade rather than standing away from it.
Is it wired or does it need a lamp?
No. It is a non-electric decorative piece. Any lamp choice is dictated by the lamp or fitting the shade is used on.
How many should I use on one shade?
That is a matter of taste. One placed at the front gives a single point of interest, while three or four spaced evenly around the shade read as a pattern.
How do I clean it?
Take it off the shade, wipe it with a dry cloth, and refit it. Avoid water and cleaning sprays, which can mark the brown oxide finish.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
It is rated IP20, so keep it to dry rooms such as bedrooms, sitting rooms and hallways.
Does it come with a warranty?
Yes, it carries a one year warranty from the manufacturer.
