You can also choose from a range of fabrics like soft brushed cotton, smooth velvet, shiny faux silk, or bright plain cotton.

Each shade comes with a removable diffuser, so light is spread gently and evenly. This creates a warm and welcoming feel. Because of their size and style, these large drum lampshades work well in homes and business spaces alike.

Tall Cone Lampshade

The tall cone lampshade, now back in style, is a great way to add height and elegance to your space. Its slim, pointed shape gives any lamp a bold and eye-catching look while also adding a retro feel. This shade works well on tall table lamps and floor lamps, helping to stretch the lamp’s shape and draw the eye.

As a pendant, the tall cone shade creates real impact, especially in rooms with high ceilings where its shape stands out. Whether you prefer modern style or something with a vintage twist, this shade is a smart choice for bold, stylish lighting.

Tall Drum Lampshade

Our large tall drum lampshade is a smart and stylish choice, ideal for both floor and large table lamps. Its taller shape adds height and balance, helping the lamp stand out in any setting. Whether in a living room or hotel lobby, it brings a clean, bold look that fits many styles.

In commercial spaces, these tall drum shades also work well when grouped at different heights. This creates a strong, eye-catching feature, perfect for open areas in restaurants, bars, or hotels. With simple lines and strong shape, this shade blends style and impact with ease.

Metallic Drum Lampshade

Our large drum light shades with metallic linings are a smart and modern choice for many spaces. These eye-catching shades come in 10 different lining finishes, including matte, mirror, and brushed styles in gold, silver, copper, and champagne. Because the metallic linings reflect light gently, they give off a warm and cosy glow that helps create a relaxed mood in the room.

These shades work well in both homes and commercial settings. They are easier to clean than shades with diffusers and are perfect when you want both style and practicality. You can choose from easy-fit sizes up to 80cm wide, or ask us about making a custom size to suit your needs. So, if you want something special for your space, simply get in touch—we’re happy to help.

French Drum Lampshade

For a stylish twist on the classic drum shade, our extra-large French drum lampshade brings simple elegance to any table or floor lamp. Its gentle taper gives the shape a softer and more polished feel, which works well in both modern and traditional spaces. You can also choose this shade as a pendant, offering a refined lighting option that looks great in any room.

To add even more style, line your shade with one of our metallic finishes—like gold, silver, or champagne. These linings reflect light warmly and help create a cosy, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you want a bold feature or something to blend with your current look, this shade offers both beauty and practical lighting for your home or business.

Custom Large Lampshades

Our large lampshades are made to be fully custom, giving you the freedom to match your style and space with ease. First, choose the size that best suits your room. With sizes up to 120cm wide, these shades work well when you want to create a strong focal point.

Then, pick from a wide range of high-quality outer fabrics. You might choose soft velvet for a rich look, brushed cotton for timeless charm, plain cotton for a clean finish, or faux silk for added shine. Each fabric adds its own feel and texture to your lampshade.

After that, pick an inner lining to shape how the light looks. Go with a plain white lining for a fresh, bright feel, or choose a metallic finish—like gold, silver, or champagne—for a soft, warm glow. Each lining affects the mood of the room in its own way.

Lastly, decide where your shade will go—on a table lamp, a floor lamp, or hanging as a ceiling pendant. Every choice helps your lighting work well while also adding to your decor. With so many options, your large lampshade will show off your style and finish your space beautifully.

Large Modern Lampshades

Modern lampshades often feature a PVC or card backing, which gives them their sturdy, “hard shade” design. This rigid backing makes them ideal for modern shapes like Square, Rectangle, Empire, or Drum styles.

Explore our wide selection of large and extra-large lampshades, or let us create a custom piece for you. Our skilled craftsmen can tailor a lampshade to your exact size and shape requirements.

Thanks to the way these large shades are made, we can offer more bespoke options compared to our traditional range, including sizes up to an impressive 2m wide!

We supply large shades for table lamps, floor lamps, and standard lamps in these modern styles, perfect for both residential and commercial spaces.

Large Traditional Lamp Shades: Timeless Elegance

Large traditional lamp shades are crafted with a rigid metal frame and feature hand-stretched fabric covers,  thus offering a classic look that never goes out of style. Known as “soft shades,” these lampshades are renowned for their craftsmanship and elegant appearance. The wire frame allows for more intricate, traditional shapes that add character and charm to any room.

Popular shapes in our traditional range include the graceful Bowed Empire, the Scalloped Bowed Empire with its decorative edges, the Bowed Drum for a classic silhouette, and the stunning Ribbon Pleated Empire for a touch of refined luxury. Each style is designed to evoke a sense of timeless beauty, making them a perfect choice for more traditional interiors.

Our standard sizes go up to a 22″ base diameter, ideal for large table lamps or floor lamps. However, if you’re looking for something larger, we offer custom options to create lampshades beyond the standard size. Whether you need a statement piece or a subtle addition to your lighting, we can craft a bespoke shade tailored to your specifications.
