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.

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.
Bring a touch of industrial heritage into your living room with these iconic lampshades
Our Original 1933™ Design lampshades reimagine the Standard Coolicon lampshades.
The small welcoming form and innovative vented gallery allows for soft ambient lighting above while producing a stronger task lighting below. Becoming more dramatic as the night draws in, the gallery vents cast light across the reflector of the lampshade, enriching the deep Vitreous Enamel finish.
With its bi-directional light the Original 1933™ Design Coolicon offers a clutter free alternative to lighting side tables as well as highlighting cornices or statement walls. The choice of a regal Royal Blue shade with its curvaceous shape will form a dramatic counterpoint to a classic rectangular sofa.

"Great in sunlight, never to fade"
Coolicon lampshades receive multiple applications of Vitreous Enamel, each application is followed by firing – this process builds up a thick glass surface with a rich depth of colour.
As the molten Vitreous Enamel flows over the surface of the red-hot steel it pools and thins, this causes slight variation accentuating the contours of the lampshade. Look closely at the surface and you may see depth variation in the layers of the enamel.
The continuous enamel finish means that Coolicon lampshades are easy to keep clean – ideal for when you welcome lots of guests into your living room. Coolicon lampshades are also healthy to live with, the mixture of natural oxides, minerals and glass are non-VOC (volatile organic compound). This means that the shade will not emit any gases or react with any chemicals.
"Handcrafted lampshades that last a lifetime"
A British classic; The Royal Blue Lampshade
Originally utilitarian factory lighting, the Classic Palette invites Coolicon lampshades into the home.
Royal Blue forms part of our six strong Classic Palette - born out of an industrial history this palette reflects humble origins. A colour of peace and stability, this bold yet familiar lampshade will hang proudly alongside you for a lifetime and beyond. For understated elegance pair Royal Blue with any shade from the Classic Palette or with Sky Blue for a blue-hued statement.
