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.

Iconic Vitreous Enamel Lampshades; Heat Resistant and primed for Kitchen use
Seamlessly shifting from lighting the communications rooms of London’s Underground network, the Coolicon lampshade now finds itself nestled among the comforts of the contemporary home. It’s efficient bi-directional lighting plays the perfect role in busy households. With ambient light spreading throughout the room from the vented gallery above, the stronger task light will keep you focused while peeling the veggies or stirring a stovetop pot.
The modern kitchen island is both a workspace and an entertainment space. For these multipurpose spaces, we recommend pairs of our Underground 1933™ Design lampshades, an undoubted conversation piece with precision task lighting for all home bakers. Providing general lighting throughout the space as well as direct light over a countertop, these lampshades are ideal for food preparation, entertaining guests and washing up afterwards.
"Interior lighting that's perfect
for multipurpose rooms"

"Great in sunlight, never to fade"
As the darkest Vitreous Enamel mixture in our colour palette, Northern Line Black Coolicon lampshades often conceal the expressed edge details of the enamelling process. However, this lampshade Line has a different detail to steal your gaze; expertly placed with precision and care, Beck’s Underground map is fired into the reflector at 800°C. At temperatures where paper maps would turn to a crisp, this Vitreous Enamel detailing makes certain the map will never fade, tarnish or even scratch.
The reflectivity of a lampshade's interior is an integral part for radiating light across a space. By mastering the art of detailing with enamel, we maintain the high-gloss properties of the glass, natural mineral and oxide mix throughout the entire lampshade. The vivid black enamel coat is measured and milled into a liquid “slurry” before applying layer upon layer to the lampshade's exterior. Finished with a glint of gold, the Coolicon badge, the Northen Line Black lampshade creates statement lighting that celebrates the bold historic designs.
"Contemporary lampshades with unwavering reflectivity"
Industrial lamps that lit the London Underground
From the factories of 1933 and into modern interiors, the sleek Black of the Northern Line lampshades is reminiscent of their industrial past.
This timeless colourway holds memories of crisp black bowler hats and the unmistakable London black cabs of commutes past. Matched by the depth of coal and richness of fresh tar, this is a lampshade that will truly draw out the boldness of the enamelled Underground map colours.
A classic colour to match any style of interior. Why not pair with an Underground Map lampshade to truly celebrate Harry Beck’s ingenious design?
