Description
Shaped like an upturned wine glass, this small shade is amber glass with a frosted funnel set inside it. The outer wall gives the honeyed tone, while the inner funnel softens what passes through, so the lamp behind reads as a glow rather than a hot point. At 12cm across it is a modest piece, made to be seen in numbers rather than alone.
It is one we reach for when a multi-lamp Andromeda pendant needs its glass, whether that is a round cluster over a dining table or a long rectangle above an island. The light is ambient and warm rather than task bright, which suits eating and sitting rooms far better than a worktop. Amber does much of the work in a modern scheme of pale walls and timber, and it sits well beside clear or frosted glass in the same frame if you want the tone to shift across the cluster.
Glass is the whole of it, so the colour lives in the material rather than in a coating. It is light in the hand and best lifted straight rather than twisted. For cleaning, let the host fitting cool, take the shade down and wash it in warm soapy water, then dry it fully before it goes back; nothing abrasive and no solvents, as the frosted inner surface holds a smear. Being non-electric, it takes no lamp of its own; the pendant it hangs from supplies that. It carries a one year warranty. The wider range runs from small round pendants to long rectangular ones, and we stock frame-only versions in light gold for anyone building a cluster shade by shade.

Frequently Asked
How big is this shade?
It measures 120mm in diameter and 125mm in height, so it is a small shade intended for use in groups on a multi-lamp frame.
Does it include a lamp or any wiring?
No. It is a non-electric glass shade, so the pendant or frame it fits to provides the lampholder and the lamp.
What is the frosted part inside?
There is an inner frosted funnel within the amber outer glass. It diffuses the light so you see a soft warm glow rather than the lamp itself.
How should I clean the glass?
Once the fitting is cool, remove the shade and wash it in warm soapy water, then dry it completely. Avoid abrasive creams, scourers and solvent cleaners.
Will it match the other Andromeda pendants?
Yes. The range includes round and rectangular pendants, along with frame-only versions in light gold that are made to be dressed with shades.
Is it heavy?
No. Each shade weighs 0.14kg, which keeps the load light even on the larger frames that hold many of them.
