Bespoke lengths available.

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.

Hallway lighting of unmatched quality and craftsmanship
The iconic Coolicon® vented gallery, with its bi-directional lighting, comes into its own when lighting entrances and hallways. Designed to dissipate the heat of the 1930’s lightbulbs, the vents now allow for ambient lighting to fill a room and ceiling whilst the continued Original White Vitreous Enamel within the reflector is highly efficient at lighting below.
Coolicon® lampshades are the natural choice for entrances and hallways, freeing up floor and wall space for wellington boots and coats in the busy thoroughfare.
The longer the hallway, the more light you may require. Consider adding a large pendant lampshade every couple of metres (or 8 feet) along the length of the hallway for optimal lighting. For larger entrance hall spaces, the ambient light of the Large 1933™ Design lampshade can fill the room while making a making its classic design and presence known.
"This timelessly designed lampshade

from ceilings to walls, and crisp task

"Great in sunlight, never to fade"
Handmade in Britain, Coolicon’s lustrous and tough Vitreous Enamel is applied by artisans. Building layer upon layer the resulting finish has a more solid foundation and much higher reflective properties than both paint and powder coatings. The high-gloss reflectivity of our lampshades make the most of natural light sources, allowing natural light to bounce from shade to shade along lengthy entrance corridors and into your space.
Coolicon lampshades are incredibly efficient at illuminating smaller spaces such as hallways; the bi-directional light brightens up every gloomy corner. Easy to maintain, the Vitreous Enamel finish makes dusting the shades easier than ever; ensuring that your statement lighting remains as striking after ten years as on day one.
"A highly reflective lampshade finish, both inside and out"
Original White lampshades; a clean, calming and well-lit interior must have
Designed specifically for the early hospitals of the 1950s, White Standard Coolicon shades could be found lighting the corridors and wards during the first days of the NHS. The original colour was chosen to mimic the crisp white of a doctor’s jacket, and we continue to honour this to today. The shimmer of the enamel reminiscent of the glimmer of a fresh snowfall whilst the underlying warmth pays homage to the familiar down of the regal swan or the softness of cotton.
Mix things up in a modern hallway by pairing Original White with a shade from our Contemporary Palette, such as Deep Yellow, for that pop of colour.
