Wrinkle Clip-On Lampshade Chocolate Brown - 8/13cm x 13cm

This Diyas Wrinkle clip-on lampshade is a 13cm-tall chocolate brown fabric shade with a gathered surface texture that forms natural vertical folds across the entire circumference. The shade tapers from a 13cm top diameter to an 8cm base diameter, and clips directly onto a candle bulb (E14 or SES base) without requiring a separate shade carrier or lampshade ring.

Designed for chandelier arms, wall lights with exposed candle bulbs, and small table lamps that use candle-style fittings, the clip-on mechanism grips the bulb itself rather than a traditional shade carrier or bayonet ring. This makes it suitable for multi-arm chandeliers where each arm needs a matching shade, and for wall lights where space is limited. The shade is rated for bulbs up to 40W, which accommodates both traditional incandescent candle bulbs and modern LED equivalents.

The chocolate brown fabric is lined on the interior to prevent light bleed and to direct the glow downwards and outwards through the gathered material. The wrinkle texture softens the light output and adds tonal variation to the surface when lit, creating subtle highlights along the ridges and deeper tone in the recesses. At 70g the shade is light enough not to strain the bulb fitting when clipped on, and the fabric construction gives a warmer, softer appearance than metal or glass shades of similar size.

How does the clip-on fitting work?

The shade has a metal clip mechanism at the top that grips directly onto the body of a candle bulb (E14 or SES base). You clip the shade onto the bulb itself, not onto a separate shade carrier. This works best with candle bulbs that have a consistent 35-40mm diameter body section for the clip to grip.

What size bulb does it fit?

The shade is designed for candle-style E14 (small Edison screw) or SES (small bayonet) bulbs up to 40W. LED candle bulbs of 4-6W equivalent to 40W incandescent are the most common pairing. The shade does not fit standard E27 or B22 bulbs.

Can it be used on a chandelier?

Yes. This is one of the primary uses for clip-on shades. Multi-arm chandeliers with exposed candle bulbs often use matching clip-on shades on each arm to soften the light and add decorative interest. The 70g weight is light enough not to stress chandelier arms.

Is the fabric washable?

No. The fabric is not washable due to the internal lining and the gathered construction. Light dust can be removed with a soft brush or a barely-damp microfibre cloth, but avoid soaking or chemical cleaners as they may affect the fabric texture and colour.
