Dar Drum Lampshade

Dar Drum Lampshade is a 39cm faux silk drum shade by Dar. The shade’s neutral taupe tone and fine fabric texture give a calm, understated presence for table lamps and other fittings where a considered, soft ambience is required.

The shade is a perfectly cylindrical drum with vertical sides and clean top and bottom edges. Its minimal profile emphasises texture and proportion — a simple form chosen to balance both contemporary and classic lamp bases.

The exterior is wrapped in a fine-weave fabric that is stretched taut over an internal frame to maintain a rigid geometric form. The matte finish provides a soft contrast to sharper lamp details and reads as a subtle, tactile surface in natural interiors.

Light is delivered through open top and bottom apertures, so the shade diffuses light upwards and downwards while helping to reduce direct glare from the lamp source. This makes it suitable for ambient and task-supporting lamps where balanced, comfortable light is required.

The shade measures 39cm in diameter. The internal mounting hardware (fitter) is not visible in the provided image, so check fitter compatibility with your lamp or pendant before ordering. Manufacturer warranty is 2 years standard, extended to 5 years with online registration.
