Choosing the Right Ceiling Lampshade

A ceiling lampshade can completely change the look and feel of a room. Shape, size and position all play an important part, whether you’re choosing a compact shade for a bedroom or a larger design to make a statement above a dining table.

Consider the proportions of the room as well as the height of your ceiling. Larger spaces can carry wider shades, while smaller rooms and lower ceilings often benefit from more compact proportions.

Transform Your Room from Above

Ceiling lampshades can introduce colour, texture and shape without taking up valuable floor or surface space. A simple Drum creates a clean, contemporary look, while tapered and traditional shapes can bring softer proportions and character to a room.

+ Which Shape Is Best for a Ceiling Lampshade?

Drum shades provide a simple, contemporary silhouette, while Cone, Empire and other tapered shapes offer a more traditional appearance. The right choice depends on your room, ceiling height and the overall style you want to create.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can your lampshades be used on ceiling lights?

Many of our lampshades can be made specifically for pendant use. The fitting is positioned at the top of the shade so it can hang correctly from your ceiling light.

Do you make large ceiling lampshades?

Yes. We offer larger pendant lampshades, including our Extra Large Drum Lampshades, for spaces where you want the ceiling light to make more of a statement.

Can I order samples before choosing?

Yes. Visit our free samples page to request fabric and lining samples delivered directly to your door, allowing you to compare colours and finishes in your own room before ordering.

What size ceiling lampshade do I need?

This depends on the size and height of your room as well as the position of the light. A larger room can usually accommodate a wider shade, whereas more compact shades can work better in smaller rooms or where ceiling height is limited.

Are ceiling lampshades suitable for bedrooms?

Yes. Ceiling lampshades work beautifully in bedrooms and can help tie together the colours and textures used throughout the room. Choose a compact shade for a smaller bedroom or a larger design where you have more space.

Can I Customise My Ceiling Lampshade?

Yes. Our Shade Builder allows you to choose from different shapes, sizes, fabrics, colours and finishes, giving you the freedom to create a ceiling lampshade that complements your interior.
