Bird Song Lampshade in Soft Grey With Grey Fringing
£60.00
The herons have put their glad rags on.
Quite why a heron needs ten centimetres of grey fringe is none of our business.
Bird Song Soft Grey brings together oversized water birds, dragonflies and blue waterlilies on beautifully soft grey velvet, then finishes the whole affair with a swishy fringe underneath. The grey-on-grey combination keeps things surprisingly restrained, while the birds handle the eccentricity.
This version is unlined, allowing light to gently diffuse through the sides of the velvet lampshade when illuminated.
Available in three drum sizes for table lamps, floor lamps and ceiling pendants.
A sensible grey lampshade. Covered in enormous birds and tassels, of course.
Info
Our Bird Song Soft Grey Fringed Velvet Lampshades are handmade using beautifully printed velvet mounted onto lampshade PVC. This version is left unlined, allowing light to gently diffuse through the sides of the shade when illuminated.
The soft grey velvet is finished with matching grey fringing, picking up the cooler tones running through the design.

Need help deciding?
Not sure about the colour, size or style? We're very happy to help. All our lampshades are handmade to order, so we highly recommend seeing the fabric in your own home before making your final decision. You can order up to five free fabric samples and see how the colours and velvet pile look in your own space and lighting.

Lampshade Specification
LAMPSHADE SPECIFICATIONS
Every Love Frankie lampshade is handmade to order in our UK workshop. Here's everything you need to know about fittings, sizing, materials and bulbs before ordering.
LAMPSHADE FITTINGS
Our standard lampshades use a 39mm UK/EU ring fitting and include a reducer ring for 29mm fittings, making them suitable for most standard UK and European lamps and flex sets.
For most designs, you can choose:
Lamp: the ring fitting sits approximately 4cm up from the bottom of the shade.
Ceiling Pendant: the ring fitting sits approximately 4cm down from the top of the shade.
Using an arc floor lamp? Choose the Ceiling Pendant option so the fitting sits at the top.
American harp and lampshade carrier fittings are available on selected designs by request. Please contact us before ordering if you need a specialist fitting.
Please note: Lamp bases, flexes and fittings shown in our photography are for styling purposes and are not included unless specifically stated.
LAMPSHADE SIZING
Our lampshade dimensions are shown in both centimetres and inches.
Use the size and proportion guide shown in the product images to compare the different sizes and find the right proportions for your lamp or space.
Still unsure? Get in touch and we'll happily help you choose.
FABRIC & WALLPAPER SAMPLES
Colours, textures and tones can vary between screens, so we recommend ordering a sample if you're trying to match a particular colour or interior scheme.
You can order up to five free fabric or wallpaper samples, with postage charged separately. Simply look out for the yellow ORDER FABRIC SAMPLE button on your favourite shades.

METALLIC FOIL LININGS
Our gold and copper foil lined lampshades are constructed using three layers: metallic foil, lampshade PVC and your chosen outer fabric or wallpaper.
This opaque construction prevents light from passing through the sides of the shade. Instead, light reflects from the metallic interior, creating a warm, directional glow from the top and bottom.
Larger lampshades have wider openings and will naturally allow more light into the room.
FRINGED LAMPSHADES
Our fringes are available in different lengths depending on the design.
The dimensions shown for the lampshade itself do not include the fringe, so please check the individual product details for the fringe length before ordering.
BULBS
We recommend using LED bulbs with our lampshades.
The correct bulb type and maximum wattage will depend on your lamp base or ceiling fitting, so always check the manufacturer's instructions.
Our lampshade ring fitting does not determine which bulb you need. The bulb is determined by the lamp holder or flex set you're using.
