Handmade Velvet Portable lamps in Leopardess
£70.00
Meet Leopardess - our bold, velvety take on a true icon. With rich caramel tones, inky spots and a striking feline edge, this print brings instant attitude to any space.
Drenched in rich caramel tones with deep inky spots and that signature central sweep, Leopardess is designed to feel powerful, polished, and just a little bit wild. The velvet catches the light beautifully, giving you that soft glow by day and a moody, golden warmth by night.
Leopard print isn’t a trend (never has been, never will be). It’s the ultimate neutral with a dangerous side. It works with everything, but makes everything look better.
Available in three sizes:
- Shortie: Perfect for bedside glow-ups and cosy corners
- Midi: Your side table’s new main character
- Maxi: Big, bold, and absolutely not here to be ignored
Choose your vibe:
- Hardwired: Twisted statement flex cable, plug + in-line switch
- Portable: Rechargeable LED bulb with remote (no wires, no rules)
Handmade to order, as always. Because icons aren’t mass-produced.

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.
