Description

This Mantra silk string lampshade measures 250mm at the top rim, 400mm at the base, and 25cm in height, with an ivory cream finish created by wrapping fine silk threads around a wire frame in parallel vertical lines. The spacing between each silk thread is consistent across the entire circumference, creating a ribbed texture that diffuses light while allowing it to escape between the threads.

The shade fits standard pendant lamp holders and table lamp bases with an E27 or E14 fitting, providing ambient diffused light rather than task lighting. When fitted over a warm-white bulb, the ivory cream silk softens the light output and casts subtle vertical stripe shadows onto adjacent walls. The shade works in living rooms, bedrooms and hallways where gentle ambient lighting is preferred over direct brightness.

The silk thread wrapping is hand-applied to the wire frame, which gives each shade slight variation in thread tension and spacing — a characteristic of the construction method rather than a defect. The 400mm base diameter suits pendant drops over side tables, bedside positions, and small dining tables for two. The 0.92kg weight requires a secure ceiling rose or lamp base fitting to support the shade without tilting.

Frequently Asked

What fitting does this shade require?

The shade fits standard pendant lamp holders and table lamp bases with E27 or E14 fittings. The top rim at 250mm diameter accommodates most UK pendant lampholders and European-style spider fittings.

Can the silk threads be cleaned?

Dust can be removed with a soft brush or low-suction vacuum attachment held away from the surface. The silk threads should not be wiped with damp cloths, as moisture can discolour the natural fibres and distort the thread tension.

Does the shade block much light?

No. The spacing between the silk threads allows light to escape between the wraps, so the shade diffuses rather than blocks light output. A 6-8W LED bulb provides adequate ambient light through this shade for a small room.

What size table or pendant drop does the 400mm base suit?

The 400mm base diameter works over bedside tables, side tables, and small dining tables for two. For pendant drops, the shade suits positions where the base hangs 60-80cm above a surface.
