Choosing extra large drum lamp shades
Start with the space where your shade will hang or stand. An extra large drum lampshade should suit both the room and its fitting.
For a pendant, consider the ceiling height, room size and any furniture below. For example, a large drum can work well above a dining table or in an open-plan space.
Likewise for a table or floor lamp, compare the shade diameter with the lamp base. If you are unsure, cut a cardboard template to the proposed width and depth. Then hold it in place to judge the scale.
Finally, think about the fabric and lining. A light fabric creates a different effect from a dark velvet or metallic interior.
Fabrics, Linings & Finishes
Choosing The Finish
Fabric has a big effect on the look of Extra Large Drum Lamp Shades. Our range includes velvet, brushed cotton, faux silk, cotton and other selected materials.
For a softer look, choose a neutral colour. Alternatively, a stronger colour can make the shade a statement piece. We can also use customer-supplied fabric for selected designs, subject to suitability.
Depending on the shade, you can choose a white lining or a metallic finish. For example, gold, silver, champagne and copper each give the interior a different look.
Many drum designs also offer a diffuser. This conceals the bulbs and gives the underside a cleaner finish.
We recommend LED bulbs for their energy efficiency. For guidance on choosing one, see the Energy Saving Trust’s lighting guide.

Using Your Fabric
Yes, we can use customer-supplied fabric for many of our shades. However, some materials are unsuitable for lampshade making.
For this reason, please contact us before ordering. We can then check whether your chosen fabric will work.
Will an extra large drum lampshade fit my pendant light?
It depends on the shade you choose. For example, many drum shades have fittings suitable for B22 and E27 lamp holders.
Our Easy Fit Drum fits a standard pendant holder. However, larger XL Drum Pendants use a dedicated three-light fitting. Always check the individual product details before ordering.
