"Great in sunlight, never to fade"
The iconic gold Coolicon badge is a beacon of quality. First applied in 1933, today’s badges are still printed on an old-fashioned press as done so for generations before. As advocates of keeping traditional practices alive, we believe the badging process is as unique as a signature from the craftsman who made the lampshade. Aligned by eye and applied by hand the gold Coolicon badge is the shades final touch from its maker, a seal of approval like no other. For those who love the industrial look, bring some authenticity to your space with the large Coolicon badge on our Original1933™ Design lampshades, true in size and shape to the very first badges that lit the way for factory workers past.
The high efficiency Vitreous Enamel finish of a Coolicon shade means you’ll always be able to see what you’re doing whether that be rooting around in the wardrobe for last winter’s boots, folding laundry or just taking a minute for yourself.
The Vitreous Enamel finish is also healthy to live with – composed of natural mineral, oxides, and glass the finish is non-VOC. There are no gases or chemicals emitted – superbly safe for spending one third of your life in the bedroom!
"Lampshades made from materials that will truly last forever"
Metropolitan; A dark maroon lampshade inspired by interiors of the Victorian era
Once exclusively industrial lighting the now-expanded colour palette welcomes shades into the contemporary home.
A British-made modern-take on a timeless colour, with a nod to our Underground heritage Metropolitan takes its influence from the Metropolitan Line as well as Victorian tiles found throughout the network’s stations.
Pair with Powder Pink for a splash of colour or keep it regal with Royal Blue.
