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.
Create well-lit spaces and curate your dream office with industrial lampshades
Lighting can completely transform a space — not just by brightening dark corners, but by affecting your emotions. Light enlivens the little things — our morning routines, or the quiet moments we spend with a cup of tea. Hanging a Large 1933™ Design shade in the centre of a study, with smaller accent lighting to highlight your favourite piece of art, will create a brighter, more vibrant and in turn more productive working space as the light reaches all corners of the room.
The Large 1933™ Design reinvents the smaller Standard Coolicon lampshade for modern living, seamlessly transferring the iconic design from an industrial setting into the contemporary home.
A curvaceous and welcoming form with a generous vented gallery, well suited to display a statement light bulb, allows for soft ambient lighting above while producing relaxed task lighting below, perfect for busy days ahead.

To create the rich colours of our Vitreous Enamel finishes, glass chips, minerals and oxides must be milled and mixed. These materials are naturally occurring and completely safe - the viscosity of the enamel can be gauged by hand.
In paint factories, workers are required to wear gloves and masks for protection from the chemicals; in our enamel factory the craftsmen wear only dust masks to protect them from fine particles, not gasses or solvents.
Easy to clean and healthy to live with, our Vitreous Enamel lampshade are milled from glass, natural minerals, and oxides. As an impermeable material, the resulting glass finish, Vitreous Enamel, will not emit any gases or react with chemicals. In comparison, painted and powder-coated products are reliant on petrochemical based pigments.

Selvedge Blue lampshades; For an eye-catching interior
With hint of worn denim our Selvedge enamel changes from vibrant to dusky throughout the day – similar to that of aging jeans. Using shuttle looms and the indigo-dyeing techniques of days past, Selvedge Jeans, just like our lampshades, take time and uncompromising craftsmanship to come to life.
The dual-coloured reflector - Selvedge outside, Original White inside, mimics stitching; pair this lampshade with Latte Brown or a Signature Brass Suspension Set to complete the riveting look.
