Design Your French Drum Lampshade
Create a French drum lampshade made especially for your lamp and interior. With its gently tapered sides and balanced proportions, the French Drum offers a softer alternative to the classic straight-sided drum shade and works beautifully in both contemporary and traditional interiors.
Our online Shade Builder lets you customise every element of your lampshade. Start by choosing your size, then select from our extensive collection of fabrics and colours, including plain cotton, faux silk, brushed cotton and luxurious velvet.
Complete your design with your choice of lining. Keep things simple with a classic white or natural interior, or add something special with one of our decorative gold, silver, champagne or copper metallic linings.
Depending on how you plan to use your shade, you can also select the appropriate fitting for a table lamp, floor lamp or ceiling pendant.
Handmade to Order in Devon
Once you’ve created your perfect combination, your custom French drum lampshade will be individually handmade to order by our skilled team in our Devon workshop.
Our Shade Builder gives you a visual guide to your finished design as you make your selections, helping you experiment with different fabrics, colours and linings before placing your order.

Made Your Way
Every room is different, which is why we offer such a wide choice of options for our French drum shades. Whether you’re looking for an understated neutral shade, rich velvet colour or a statement metallic interior, you can create a combination to complement your lamp and your room.
