Description

This silk string lampshade is built from fine textile threads hand-wrapped around a wire frame to create a 400mm diameter tapered shade in a deep red wine colour. The silk string wrapping runs vertically from the 250mm top aperture to the 400mm base, creating a ribbed texture that diffuses light through the gaps between threads. The shade stands 250mm high and weighs 760g.

Designed for table lamps and floor lamps with E27 or B22 bulb holders, the shade fits standard European duplex fittings and sits on a supporting ring or spider frame depending on the lamp base. The 400mm base diameter suits lamp bases 150-250mm wide, providing visual balance without overwhelming side tables, console tables or bedside positions. The red wine colour casts a warm ruby-tinged ambient glow when lit, suitable for living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas where softer evening lighting is preferred over bright task light.

The silk string material is a synthetic textile thread rather than natural silk, making the shade lighter and more durable than woven fabric alternatives. The vertical ribbing creates linear shadow patterns on nearby walls when a bulb is lit inside, adding decorative interest beyond the shade itself. The wire frame inside maintains the tapered shape and prevents the textile from sagging over time. Pair with warm-white LED bulbs between 2700K-3000K to bring out the red wine tone, or cooler white bulbs if a more neutral glow is preferred.

Frequently Asked

What lamp bases does this shade fit?

The shade fits standard European duplex fittings common on table lamps and floor lamps with E27 or B22 bulb holders. The 250mm top aperture requires a supporting ring or spider frame depending on your lamp base design. Most modern table lamps use a duplex ring that the shade clips onto.

What wattage bulb can be used inside?

The maximum bulb wattage for this shade is not stated in the supplier record, so check the rating marked on your lamp base and prefer LED, which runs cooler. Avoid using halogen or traditional incandescent bulbs above 40W, as sustained heat can discolour the silk string over time. LED bulbs are strongly recommended for both energy efficiency and heat reduction.

How is the shade cleaned?

Use a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner set to low suction to remove dust from between the threads. For more stubborn marks, a barely-damp microfibre cloth can be used, but avoid soaking the textile. Do not use spray cleaners or detergents, as they may stain the silk string or weaken the binding.
