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.

"Great in sunlight, never to fade"
Handcrafted in the UK, our collection of Underground shades celebrate the alchemy of Vitreous Enamel. Finished with time-honoured skills, years in the making, these lampshades pay homage to Harry Beck and his revolutionary map design.
Each Vitreous Enamel coloured line is layered with precision and intricacy to create this joyous render of Beck’s London Underground map. Look carefully and you’ll spot each colour resides at a minutely different level within the shade; reflecting the nature of the underground rail network itself. This is due to the varying oxide and mineral compositions of each delicately weighed enamel. Fired into the shade, never to tarnish or fade, this map honours British design engineering and innovation at its finest hour.
"Lighting that honours British Design Engineering and Innovation"
