Form meets function, inside and out

Designed for maximum versatility, this shade can be used on ceiling pendants, floor lamps or table bases – making it ideal for design lovers who like to mix things up.

It’s renter-friendly, easy to install and sustainably made – a thoughtful piece that delivers on both form and function.
