Big Cat Velvet Tube Lampshade in Rust

£80.00

Spot the cat.

Our Big Cat Velvet in Rust takes the same wonderfully overgrown jungle and turns up the heat. Rich rust tones sit behind great tangles of green foliage, with one tiger tucked away amongst the leaves waiting to be discovered.

The long Tube Lampshade gives the whole design a completely different feel from the oversized cone. Taller, straighter and rather gloriously imposing.

Choose the super-slim 20cm × 60cm for maximum height, or the broader 30cm × 50cm for a chunkier silhouette.

Pop either one onto a short table or floor lamp base and you've got a great glowing column of tropical foliage rather than your average lampshade.

Warm. Wild. Wonderfully overgrown.

One tiger. An unreasonable amount of foliage. Excellent.

Info

Our Tube Lampshades are handmade using beautifully printed fabric over classic lampshade PVC. Tall, straight-sided and deliberately oversized, the Tube shape is designed to make a statement and works particularly well with shorter table and floor lamp bases.

Our Tube Lampshades are unlined, allowing the light to gently diffuse through the fabric when illuminated and bringing all that glorious colour and pattern to life.

Choose Your Size
Our Tube Lampshades come in two sizes.
The Tall & Slim measures 20cm diameter × 60cm height / 8" × 24"
The Wide measures 30cm diameter × 50cm height / 12" × 20"

Both sizes are designed primarily for table and floor lamps, where their exaggerated proportions work brilliantly on a shorter lamp base.

Need help deciding?
Not sure which size, colour or pattern will work best? 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 pattern look in your own space and lighting.

For fittings, dimensions and all the other useful technical bits, take a look at the Lampshade Specification tab below.

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 all 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.

The opaque construction prevents light passing through the sides of the shade. Instead, light reflects from the metallic interior, creating a beautifully 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 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.
