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.

Factory lights in neutral colours; A contemporary dining room to be proud of
Moving out of its traditionally industrial settings and into the modern home, our Large 1933™ Design reinvents the smaller Standard Coolicon lampshade.
Originally designed as a task light, the updated larger model projects a dispersed cone of light below as well as gentle ambient light above. We recommend introducing a dimmer to create the perfect atmosphere for intimate dinner parties.
Form and function come together to create the perfect dining room companion. We recommend wining and dining your guests under pairs of Large 1933™ Design lampshades or clusters 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 once more gently fills the room whilst the downlight leaves you and your guests firmly focused on the feast, enjoy.
"Lamps of iconic form and function;
create ambient lighting
to enthuse your guests "

As the Classic Cream Vitreous Enamel melts and flows in the furnace it reveals beautiful dark edges that contrast against the light colour of the lampshade. These expressed edges can be found around the rim of the lampshade as well as the gallery and the top joint.
Upon occasion, minute inclusions can be found on the surface of Coolicon lampshades and can be more noticeable within lighter enamels such as our Classic Cream. Inclusions appear in the form of very small black dots and are found where a tiny piece of the furnace has landed on your shade (this is a normal but exceedingly rare occurrence; we don’t like giving bits of the furnace away!)
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. This craftsmanship promises a timeless statement piece that will last a lifetime.

Customer Reviews
The shades are lovely. The whole process was really great from speaking to the team, delivery and putting the lights up. Each shade to me is a centrepiece. The classic style and coloured shade makes a room standout and they go with any style and that’s what I love about them.
I’ve always struggled to find a light to suit rooms but I now have one in nearly each room and it doesn’t matter how you design the room they will fit in and also stand out.
