Authentic enamel lampshades, handmade in England
Coolicon® Lighting Accessories
Vitreous Enamel Ceiling Cup
With beautiful symmetry, our white Vitreous Enamel ceiling cups mirror the iconic gallery of our lampshades, both in size and shape. Made from the same high-grade steel and finished in matching white enamel, our ceiling cups are durable and electrically insulated. Lovers of the fine details, our ceiling cups ensure a sleek lighting design from ceiling to lampshade.
E27 Suspension Sets
The perfect companion set to complete your Coolicon look with a choice of three timeless lamp holders.
Brass lamp holders - Our signature brass lamp holder is designed to last for decades, just like our lampshades. Imprinted with “Coolicon” around the holder, this set is sure to place your shade centre stage.
Industrial lamp holders - These modern black plastic lamp holders pay homage to the traditional black Bakelite lamp holders from Coolicon’s industrial past.
Porcelain lamp holders - Our white porcelain fittings are modern, clean and simple; produced for the Standard Collection they pair elegantly with all of our shades.
Cable Type: With a natural sheen, our finely overbraided black fabric cable ensures your lampshade hangs with that extra touch of detail and class.
Adjustable drop length: Min 15cm – Max 150cm.
Bespoke lengths available.
Please note: Suspension sets do not include a ceiling hook.
Standard Suspension Sets are certified for UK and EU use only.
E27 Light Bulb
Can be used with both incandescent filament and LED bulbs.
For a traditional look we suggest filament-style squirrel-cage or pear-shaped bulbs.
Coolicon® Lampshade Materials / Size / Weight
Our Large 1933™ Design lampshade provides a greater ambient light into the room than the Original 1933 due to the lightbulb sitting slightly higher in the larger gallery opening. This design also allows for a wider and softer cone of light to be emitted below. Sharing the same visual language and proportions as the Original 1933 Design™ shade, this larger design shapes light differently to suit main room or statement lighting.
Ø400mm x 245mm - Approx weight: 1.5kg
Compatible with: E27 and E26 fittings
Light bulb wattage: Max 60W filament / 18W LED – 220-240V
Recommended shape: Squirrel-cage ST58, or ST64
Suspension set and light bulb sold separately.
Lamp holder hole size: Ø40mm
Cleaning your Vitreous Enamel lampshade
Due to the glasslike Vitreous Enamel finish, the lampshade can easily be cleaned with a soft cloth.
For stubborn marks, a high-quality window/glass cleaner can be applied to the cloth then passed over the lampshade. Care should always be taken to avoid contact with the Coolicon badge.
Dining room lighting, for tables big and small
Our Large 1933™ Design reinvents the smaller Standard Coolicon lampshade: transitioning our iconic design from industrial settings into the contemporary home.
Designed as a task light, the form of the lampshade focuses light below while projecting gentle ambient light above, ideal for creating an atmospheric dining experience.
Form and function come together to create the perfect dining room companion. We recommend wowing guest with either a single Large 1933™ Design lampshade or a cluster of Original 1933™ Design shades. Hanging a single shade above a square or round table provides the dining room with a warm ambient light whilst the downlight provides a gentle cone of task light to illuminate your table.
For those with a longer table we recommend hanging a lampshade between each place setting. Ambient up lighting gently fills the room whilst the downlight leaves you and your guests firmly focused on the feast; go ahead and enjoy.

Our lampshades are constructed of a high-grade steel to ensure longevity and the finest quality finish.
The main body of our lampshades, the reflector, is spun, pressed, and formed by hand. Once perfectly rounded the reflector is welded to the vented gallery, completing the construction of the 1933™ Design lampshade. More often than not, the craftsperson who spins the reflectors also welds it to the gallery in this two-part process.
When the steel lampshades arrive at the enameller’s, welding and forming marks are carefully cleaned up and removed by hand.
Our 15-step handmade process produces lampshades that look incredible and last a lifetime. The steel body ensures a solid foundation and makes way for the flawless Vitreous Enamel finish. Lustre, practicality and craftsmanship promise a timeless statement piece to stay by your side for generations to come.

Our darkest lampshade yet; the uncompromising high-gloss Jet Black
Once exclusively industrial lighting, our expanded colour palette welcomes the utility shades into the comforts of the modern home.
The darkest shade we make, Jet Black offers a dramatic counterpoint to our more vibrant lampshades. This pure, high-gloss black makes for bold uncomplicated choice. Hint of precious jet stones are referenced in the luxurious and luminescent gleam of our hand polished shades. For a bold statement try pairing with our Select Palette’s Antinium shade.
