LAMPSHADE GUIDE

Looking for the perfect lampshade but unsure which size or style to choose? 

Follow these simple steps to get your shade just right.

1. Pendant, table or floor lamp?

Our shades are suitable for pendant fittings, table lamps and floor lamps.

They work with UK, EU and US style lamps/pendants.

2. Which size?

Lampshade sizes are measured by the diameter at the bottom of the shade.

Table lamps: match the base height to the shade diameter (e.g. a 35cm base = 35cm shade). Usually sizes XS, small and medium work perfectly.

Floor lamps: go for a size medium, large or XL depending on the space.

Pendants: consider the room size + ceiling height for best effect. Size medium for smaller rooms and large/XL for bigger rooms.
