Description

This Mantra silk string lampshade is built from individual strands of olive silk thread wound around a rigid metal frame, forming a 300mm diameter base that tapers to a 190mm top opening across 200mm height. The parallel-wrapped construction creates vertical ribbing across the shade surface, visible both when lit and unlit.

Designed as a replacement shade or custom option for table lamps and floor lamps with compatible fittings, the shade suits E27 or B22 lamp holders and works with bulbs up to 60W. The olive tone sits between khaki and moss green, pairing with natural wood furniture, cream or grey walls, and linen or cotton textiles. When a bulb is lit inside, the silk diffuses light horizontally through the vertical threads, softening the glow and reducing glare compared to bare bulbs or clear glass shades.

The silk construction weighs 400g, light enough for most standard lamp bases without requiring counterbalancing. The rigid frame maintains the conical shape under tension from the wrapped thread, and the top and bottom openings are finished with bound edges that prevent fraying. The shade sits directly onto a lamp holder via the top ring, which fits standard UK shade carriers and European spider fittings.

Frequently Asked

What lamp fittings does it work with?

The shade fits standard UK shade carriers and European spider fittings via the top ring. It suits E27 and B22 lamp holders with bulbs up to 60W. Check your lamp base fitting type before ordering.

What bulb is recommended?

A warm-white LED bulb between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K works well. The silk thread diffuses the light horizontally, so frosted or pearl-finish bulbs are not essential, though they reduce visible filament or LED diode patterns.

How is the shade cleaned?

Dust regularly with a soft brush or dry microfibre cloth. The silk thread construction traps dust in the vertical ribbing, so gentle brushing between the threads keeps the surface clean. Avoid water or cleaning sprays, which can stain the silk.

Does the olive colour vary under different light?

Yes. Under daylight the olive reads as a muted green-brown. Under warm-white artificial light (2700K-3000K) the shade takes on a warmer khaki tone. Under cool-white light (4000K+) the green undertone becomes more visible.
