Penelope Cotton Lampshade, Red

£24

Size: Extra Small (15 cm)
Materials

Here we have a beautiful lampshade with traditional gathered pleats, featuring a delicate floral print. The motif is interrupted by the folds, creating an impressionistic element to the design, adding a layer of complexity to the aesthetic.

Style with a traditional brass stand, or perhaps with a more modern, organically shaped one. Just a thought. Either would suit design-led homes.

Inspiration
Each of these lampshades is made by hand in Oxfordshire, where Där has been based since 1974. The work involves carefully shaping fabric around the shade, creating its characteristic pleats and finishing each piece by hand. It is a fitting location for a craft rooted in textiles: Banbury has a centuries-old history of wool, weaving and cloth production, once known for a distinctive woven fabric called Banbury plush. Centuries of craftsmanship lives in every pleat.
Collectors Questions

Q: Does the lampshade come with a bulb?


A: No — bulbs are sold separately for every lampshade in the collection, so you'll need to fit your own. This is fairly standard for decorative shades and means you can choose the exact warmth and brightness you prefer.

Q: Will this shade fit my existing lamp base, or is it a specific fitting?


A: This lampshade comes with a reducer ring, making it suitable for both E27 and E14 fittings. The bulb is not included. It takes 1 × 60W maximum GLS bulb with an E27 (non-electric) fitting, using the reducer ring where needed.

Q: What size shade should I choose for my lamp base?


A: Our shades come in four sizes — Extra Small (15cm), Small (25cm), Medium (35cm), and Large (40cm). As a rough guide, a larger or heavier base calls for a wider shade for visual balance, while a smaller, more delicate base suits an Extra Small or Small shade better.

Q: What are the exact dimensions for each size?


A: Height and diameter by size:
Extra Small — H13.5 x Ø15cm
Small — H17 x Ø25cm
Medium — H25 x Ø35cm
Large — H29 x Ø40cm
Measure your existing base's height and widest point against these to find the best match.

Q: Can I use these lampshades outdoors, such as on a covered porch?


A: These lampshades are designed to be enjoyed indoors, where their materials and fittings are best protected. To keep them looking their best, we recommend using them inside, as outdoor humidity and temperature changes can affect their condition, even in covered spaces.
