Our superb collection of classic French Drum lampshades are available in a range of sizes and fabrics for creating the perfect finish for your table, standard or floor lamp. With its gently tapering sides, a French Drum shade offers a more traditional look than its more contemporary cousin - the cylinder – and will wash your room with a soft, flattering light that will create a warm, inviting atmosphere wherever it is placed.
Linen has a subtle slub when looked at up-close which lends a charming simplicity to modern day interiors, perfect for creating a fresh, informal feel in a room. Shown above in our delicious Paprika Waterford Linen, this shade has an informal, lightweight feel especially when used to freshen up an existing colourway or as an accent in a new scheme. All our shades are handmade here at our Suffolk workshop by our team of expert shade makers, and many of our gorgeous fabrics are also available as cut lengths and cushions if you are looking for a coordinated look.
- This is a lamp base fitting shade used for any wall, table or floor lamps where the bulb points up. For more information, please see our Shade Orientation Guide >

LINEN
Linen is a beautifully soft, yet tough, natural fibre made from the stalk of a flax plant. With a thicker, slightly stiffer yarn than cotton, linen is a delightfully porous, lightweight fabric that softens with use and wicks away both heat and moisture, making it ideal for lampshades. It is also naturally hypo-allergenic. The weave has a subtle slub when looked at up-close which lends a charming simplicity to modern day interiors, perfect for creating a fresh, informal feel in a room.
