Sparxis Fabric Wall Lampshade - Dark Beige

The Sparxis is a 100mm cube-shaped fabric wall lampshade in dark beige from Ideal Lux, designed as a slip-on shade for existing wall light fittings. The shade is constructed from woven fabric stretched over a wire frame, creating a semi-translucent surface that diffuses light evenly across all four sides and the open base. The dark beige tone sits between taupe and sand, adding warmth without the yellow cast of cream or the coolness of grey.

Designed for bedside wall lights, living room reading lights and hallway sconces, the Sparxis fits over most E14 and small E27 bulb holders with a maximum 40W rating. The 97mm projection from the wall means the shade sits close to the mounting surface, making it suitable for narrow hallways and spaces where a protruding shade would obstruct movement. The fabric diffusion reduces glare from visible bulbs, turning direct light into ambient wash light across the surrounding wall.

The woven fabric construction gives the shade a textile finish that pairs well with natural materials — linen upholstery, oak furniture, wool rugs — and complements neutral interior schemes where stone, sand and earth tones dominate. The wire frame inside the fabric maintains the cube shape under heat from the bulb, and the open base allows heat to escape upwards rather than trapping it inside the shade. The shade weighs approximately 80g, light enough to sit on most existing wall light arms without needing additional support.

What fitting does this shade suit?

The Sparxis is a slip-on shade designed for wall light fittings with E14 or small E27 bulb holders. It fits most existing bedside and hallway wall lights with exposed bulbs where a shade is needed to reduce glare.

What wattage bulb can it take?

The fabric shade is rated for bulbs up to 40W. Most users pair this with a 4-6W LED bulb in warm white (2700K-3000K) for soft ambient lighting suitable for bedrooms and living rooms.

Can the fabric be cleaned?

The fabric can be gently dusted with a soft brush or microfibre cloth. For marks, a barely-damp cloth with distilled water is acceptable, but avoid soaking the fabric and allow it to dry fully before re-installing on the light fitting.

Is the shade open at the top and bottom?

The shade is open at the base, allowing light to wash downwards and heat to escape upwards. The top is closed with fabric, so the primary light output is through the four fabric sides and out of the bottom aperture.
