FAQs

Can I use a half shade on a table lamp?

Our half shades are primarily designed to fit wall lights where a flush fitting shade is desired, however they can also be used for table lamps and are good solution for a narrow shelf, mantlepiece or console table where space is limited.

How much light will my shade let through?

Generally the lighter the colour and weave of the fabric, the more light the shade will allow through. The darker and heavier the fabric, the more the light is channelled through the top and bottom of the shade.
