Table Lampshade, Ceiling Pendant Lampshade. Cotton/Linen Fabric
All of my lampshades are handmade using only the finest quality linen and cotton fabric sourced from the UK and Europe.
This lampshade is a handmade item, crafted in Wales and finished to the highest standard, and is complimented with a white fireproof PVC inner.
Available to order from the Shop in nine sizes. (40x25cms shown in photo).
SIZING GUIDE: The first measurement is the DIAMETER (WIDTH) of the lampshade and the second the HEIGHT.
Light Bulb Fittings: Edison Screw Cap (E27, E14) or Bayonet Cap (B22, B15d).
Fitting: to suit any standard UK fitting floor or table lamp base with a bulb holder of 29mm/40mm – simply remove the converter plug in the centre of the fitting to change the size from 29mm to 40mm. My lampshades also adapt to US lamp bases that more commonly have a harp fitting (the small adapter is available to purchase in my Etsy shop).
Testing: The lampshade frame and inner materials have been tested and passed the glow wire test carried out by the Lighting Association (UK). The lining is 100% flame retardant.
Please note the lampbase is not included. The tripod lampbases are available to purchase in the Shop listings in four colours.

Dear US Customers: If you do decide to purchase a lampshade larger than 30 centimetres (12 inches) in diameter, an additional postal charge of £20 will need to be charged. This is due to the weight of the heavy duty larger boxes that are necessary in order to deliver them safely to the USA. There is an additional link on the last page of my shop for the extra postage – Thanks, Nicola

Choosing the Size of Your Lampshade
Below is a rough guide to assist you in choosing the size of your lampshade. I am here to help so please email me if you need any help with this.
Width
The lampshade’s width (diameter) should be roughly equal to the height of the lamp base.
Proportion
The lampshade should be wider than the widest part of the bottom of the lamp base. If the lamp’s dimensions fall between two shade sizes, choose the larger one. It will look better and distribute more light. Consider an oval shaped lampshade if you are limited for space.
Height
The lampshade’s height should be about two-thirds the height of the lamp base.
Light needs
A larger, more transparent shade or a higher wattage bulb will provide more light.
