A well-chosen bedside lampshade can transform both your lamp and the atmosphere of your bedroom. The right shape and size will complement your lamp base while fitting comfortably on your bedside table without overwhelming the surrounding space.

Made to Suit Your Bedroom
Your bedside lampshades can blend naturally with your bedroom or become a feature in their own right. Choose matching shades on either side of the bed for a balanced look, or introduce colour and texture with a statement shade.

Choosing the Right Bedside Lampshade
The best bedside lampshade should complement the proportions of your lamp base while fitting comfortably within the space available. Consider the width and height of your lamp as well as how close it sits to the wall, headboard and other furniture.
Shape can also make a big difference. Drum lampshades create a simple, contemporary look, while Cone and traditional styles offer a more tapered silhouette. Oval lampshades are particularly useful where space is limited because their shallower depth allows them to sit closer to a wall or headboard.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size lampshade is best for a bedside table lamp?
First, measure your lamp base and the space available on your bedside table. Check the shade’s width, depth and height, allowing room beside the wall or headboard. When sitting in bed, the shade should screen the bulb to reduce glare. If you’re unsure, send us your lamp measurements and a photograph so we can advise.
Can I have matching lampshades for both sides of my bed?
Yes. Matching bedside lampshades are a lovely way to create a balanced look on either side of the bed. As our shades are handmade to order, you can choose the same shape, size, fabric and finish for both lamps.
What fabrics are available for bedside lampshades?
Our bedside lampshades are available in a wide selection of fabrics, including brushed cotton, plain cotton, faux silk and velvet, with plenty of colours to choose from.
Which lampshade shape is best for a bedside lamp?
Several shapes work beautifully on bedside lamps. Drums offer a clean, simple look, while Cone and traditional shapes provide a more tapered silhouette. Oval lampshades are particularly useful for narrow bedside tables because their shallower depth helps them sit closer to a wall or headboard.
Can I customise a bedside table lampshade?
Yes. Our Shade Builder allows you to choose your preferred shape, size, fabric, colour and lining, making it easy to create a bedside lampshade that complements your lamp base and bedroom. Available fabrics, linings, trims and fittings vary by design.
Can I order samples before choosing my lampshade?
Yes. Visit our free samples page to request fabric and lining samples delivered directly to your door. This allows you to see the colours, textures and finishes in your own bedroom before deciding.
