Ceiling Light With Shade, Scalloped Fabric Tiers

One Tier, Two or Three Is a Choice About Height Rather Than About Width

The three builds are sold as sizes but they are really three shapes. One flat tier reads as a disc and sits almost against the ceiling, which suits a corridor or a low room. Two tiers give you a cone over a skirt and a visible profile from the side. Three stack into a small pagoda that wants to be looked at from below and needs the drop to be seen at all. Over a table the two tier is usually right; in a room where the fitting is the object, the three tier earns its extra depth.

Questions about this product

Everything you need to know about this product.

Which build is widest?

The single tier, at 19.6 inches across and 4.7 inches deep. It reads as a shallow disc close to the ceiling. The two and three tier builds are narrower and taller, trading width for a profile you see from the side. Pick by the shape you want overhead rather than by the widest number.

Does it dim?

As supplied it runs at a single level. The fitting takes one E27 lamp, so the simplest route to a lower light over a table is a dimmable lamp on a compatible wall dimmer, fitted by your electrician. Tell us what you have in mind and we will point you at the right lamp.

How low can it hang?

Up to 5.9 feet of cord, which is the longest in this range and a foot and a half more than most of the others. That is what makes it usable over a stairwell or a tall island rather than only under a flat ceiling.

Is the shade really handmade?

The rolled and stitched edge is done by hand, and it is the part that matters: it holds the flare open. It also means no two rims are identical, so a pair hung side by side will not match exactly.

How does the shade keep its shape?

The cloth is gathered and stitched rather than stretched flat, and the rim is rolled by hand. That construction is what holds each tier open, so the scalloped edge keeps its wave instead of sagging inward as the fabric settles.

How do I clean it?

A soft brush, dry, worked from the top tier down. Never wet the fabric: the gathers and the stitched rim are set into the cloth and water will take them out. Once or twice a year is enough in a normal room.

A Scalloped Rim Softens the Hard Shadow Line That a Cut Edge Would Throw

A shade with a straight cut edge lays a hard ring of shadow on the wall behind it, and you see that ring before you see the fitting. Rolling and stitching the rim into a wave breaks the line into a series of shallow curves instead, so the edge of the light is gradual. In a kitchen or above a table that is the difference between a fitting that cuts the room in half and one that fades out. It also means the rim holds its shape rather than sagging as the cloth ages.
