Description
The Willow is a white fabric lampshade with a pleated cotton exterior, measuring 36/40cm diameter at the base and 26cm in height. The gently tapered drum shape widens from a 36cm top to a 40cm base, with vertical pleats running the full height of the shade to create soft shadow lines when lit. The shade fits standard E14 or E27 lampholders and accepts bulbs up to 100W.
Designed to pair with table lamps, floor lamps and pendant conversions, the Willow suits bedrooms, living rooms and dining areas where diffused ambient light is needed. The white cotton fabric softens direct bulb glare while maintaining enough translucency to cast warm light into the room. The pleated construction gives the shade structure without requiring internal wire support, so it holds its shape when fitted to a harp or ring fitting.
The 36/40cm diameter suits medium-height table lamp bases between 40-60cm tall, creating balanced proportions when the shade sits at approximately eye level when seated. The shade weighs 0.6kg, light enough to fit spring-loaded harp fittings without sagging. The white finish pairs with chrome, brass, nickel and painted lamp bases, and the neutral tone works across traditional, contemporary and transitional interiors.

Frequently Asked
What fitting type does the shade require?
The Willow fits standard E14 or E27 lampholders using either a harp and finial fitting (common on UK table lamps) or a ring/spider fitting (common on pendant conversions). Check your lamp base fitting type before ordering.
What's the maximum bulb wattage?
The shade accepts bulbs up to 100W. Most users pair this with a 6-10W LED bulb in warm white (2700K-3000K) for general ambient light, which provides equivalent light output to a traditional 40-60W incandescent without heat build-up.
Can the shade be cleaned?
Yes. Remove dust with a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner set to low power, or use a lint roller. For fabric marks, spot-clean gently with a barely-damp cloth and distilled water. Do not immerse the shade in water or use spray cleaners.
What lamp base height suits this shade?
The 26cm shade height pairs well with table lamp bases between 40-60cm tall. The shade base diameter of 40cm means the lamp base should ideally be 15-20cm wide to maintain balanced proportions.
