'Iconical' Cone Lamp Shade in Cotton

$ 298.00

Inspired by vintage lamp shades from the 1930s, I wanted to see if I could create my own modern version of the cone shaped lamp shade. This shade has a 12 inch bottom diameter and comes to a complete point at the top. The look is stunning. It was a challenge to create, but I think the end result is worth it.

Because of the unusual shape of this lamp shade, there are some extra considerations when choosing this lamp shade. Since there is no hole at the top to allow the heat to escape, this shade can only be used with a low wattage, LED light bulb. Preferably, a shorter or globe light bulb would be ideal. Because of this shade shape, it has the potential to get warm quicker, so this would be a nice solution for an accent lamp that isn't left on for long periods of time. Too much trapped heat can cause the shade to yellow and become brittle prematurely.

PRO TIP FOR LIGHT BULBS
For optimal performance, choose your bulb based on your shade size and not on what your lamp base can handle.

LEDs emit less heat than incandescent bulbs, but heat output is not the only thing that affects the well-being of your shade. Lumen output can affect how quickly a shade yellows with time.

'Wattage' is the measurement of energy used, and 'lumens' are the measurement of light output. The light bulb's lumen output is how we determine wattage equivalents. For example, a 60W incandescent light bulb and a 60W equivalent LED light bulb use different wattage but both give off a minimum of 800 lumens of light. Lumen output can affect a lampshade over time, and the higher the light bulb wattage/lumen output, the larger shade you should use.

The smaller the shade, the nearer it is to the light bulb, so I recommend not using more than a 40W equivalent on a 9 in. diameter shade.
