Vitreous Enamel Colour Notes; Original White
White enamel Standard Coolicon® lampshades could be found lighting corridors and wards during the first days of the NHS. Our Original White lampshades pay homage to this history. As crisp and clean as a doctor’s jacket they resonate with an almost glaze-like shine. A simple classic well-suited to any interior.
A single Original 1933™ Design lampshade can light a hallway without the need for additional floor lighting; the vented gallery offers a generous amount of up-lighting alongside the task lighting from below. Hanging a cluster or row of Original 1933™ Design lampshades in your entrance space can create a dramatic centrepiece.

Original Hallway lighting to brighten your entranceway; Perfect in rows or clusters
The iconic Coolicon lampshade comes into its own when lighting entryways and hallways. The revolutionary vented gallery, with its bi-directional light, was designed to dissipate heat from the high wattage ‘30’s light bulbs. The open vents allow for ambient light to reach the ceiling or cast onto the walls whilst the continued Original White Vitreous Enamel within the reflector is highly efficient at lighting below – allowing you to keep the hallway free of additional light sources.
Pendant lampshades are the natural choice for entryways and hallways, leaving the floors and walls clutter free for boots and jackets. The length of suspension set can alter the space dramatically, try hanging the lampshades low above entrance tables to help with the morning rush and hunt for keys. The longer the hallway the more lampshades you may require. Consider hanging a shade every metre or so (or 6 feet) along the length of the hallway for ample light.

"Great in sunlight, never to fade"
Made in Britain, Coolicon’s Vitreous Enamel finish is hand applied by generations of skilfully trained craftspeople. As the finish is built layer by layer, the lampshade must be fired after every layer application to solidify the durable finish. At the fiery temperatures of 800°C, the final characteristics of your lampshade come to light. Exiting the furnace red hot, the lampshades are then left to cool, over time revealing their rich colours ready to carry on the Coolicon journey.
Our lampshades are incredibly efficient at illuminating smaller spaces such as entryways and hallways - the bi-directional properties brighten up the darkest of spaces. For narrow spaces, try rotating the gallery vents to face the walls, this will cast the light down the surface, reflecting into the space as it shines. Easy to clean, the seamless Vitreous Enamel finish makes dusting the shades easier than ever; ensuring that your Coolicon lampshade remains as striking after ten years as on day one.
"Highly reflective finishes that brightens even the darkest of spaces"
