Wrinkle Clip-On Lampshade Cream - 8/13cm x 13cm

The Wrinkle clip-on lampshade is an 80/130mm diameter cream fabric shade with a gathered, wrinkle-textured surface that clips directly onto candle-style bulbs. The shade measures 130mm in height and weighs 70g, making it suitable for chandelier arms, wall sconces and small table lamps where a traditional shade ring or carrier would be too heavy or visually bulky.

Designed for E14 candle bulbs up to 40W, the shade clips onto the bulb itself rather than requiring a separate shade carrier or spider fitting. This direct-clip method suits chandeliers with exposed candle bulbs, traditional wall brackets, and bedside lamps where the bulb sits proud of the lamp holder. The cream fabric has an internal lining that diffuses light evenly and prevents bulb glare, turning the shade into the primary light source rather than just a decorative cover.

The wrinkle texture is created by gathering the fabric during construction, giving the surface irregular diagonal folds that catch light and create depth when the bulb is lit. This texture softens the appearance of the shade compared to a smooth drum and pairs well with classical, country house and warm-toned contemporary interiors. The 80mm base diameter expands to 130mm at the rim, creating a subtle taper that balances proportion on multi-arm chandeliers without overwhelming individual bulb positions.

How does the clip-on fitting work?

The shade has a spring-clip ring at the top that grips directly onto the body of a candle bulb. It sits approximately 10-15mm above the bulb base and stays in place through friction. No separate shade carrier or spider fitting is needed.

What bulb type does it fit?

The shade is designed for E14 (small Edison screw) candle bulbs up to 40W. LED candle bulbs between 4-6W work well and run cooler than halogen or incandescent equivalents, reducing heat stress on the fabric.

Can it be used on chandeliers?

Yes. The 70g weight and clip-on design make it suitable for chandelier arms where the bulb sits in an upright candle holder. The 130mm height and cream tone work well in sets of 3, 5 or 8 on traditional multi-arm chandeliers.

How is the fabric cleaned?

The wrinkle-textured fabric attracts dust in the folds. Use a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner set to low power, or a clean, dry paintbrush to remove dust from the gathered areas. Avoid water or fabric cleaners as they may stain or shrink the material.
