The Astro Cambria 500 Shade is a shallow drum light shade from Astro's Cambria range. Made in polycotton with a neutral putty option, it is intended for modern, understated schemes and to soften lamp light for even illumination.

Its low-profile, 'pancake' drum form gives a clean silhouette that sits close to the fitting. The open top and bottom deliver both upward and downward light; the shade is available in white, putty or pleated white.

Construction is straightforward and durable: a polycotton outer, a white inner lining and an internal metal wire frame with a spider-style fitter. A chamois diffuser sits inside to reduce direct glare and produce a gentle wash of light.

Light is softened and distributed rather than focused — the Cambria 500 reduces glare and creates balanced ambient illumination. The internal spider fitter is designed for mounting on standard lamp holders; the open apertures allow light to escape top and bottom for ambient layering.

The shade has no integrated LED or driver and is intended as the shade component to be used with a compatible lamp or fixture; check cap size and lamp dimensions for compatibility. Astro provides a three-year warranty on this product.

At Lighting Design Online we recommend the Cambria 500 when you want a considered, low-profile drum that calms a light source and integrates into muted interiors. Our guidance focuses on getting the right outcome for the room, with practical notes on compatibility and professional assurance to support project decisions.
