Dar Wickford Tapered Drum Shade

The Dar Wickford Tapered Drum Shade is a Wickford range lampshade designed to sit on table lamps and small floor stands. Finished in a neutral light‑grey cotton, this shade provides a clean, calm aesthetic that suits traditional and contemporary interiors alike.

The shade uses a tapered drum silhouette — a slightly narrower top than base — to give a considered profile that balances presence and restraint. Its simplicity and lack of external embellishment make it versatile across schemes.

Construction is straightforward and honest: a finely woven cotton fabric stretched taut over an internal frame to maintain a crisp form. The cool, uniform grey tone is intentionally neutral so the shade reads quietly within a room.

The open top and bottom allow both upward and downward light distribution while the cotton sides softly filter light, reducing glare and contributing to a gentle ambient warmth. This makes the shade appropriate where you need balanced, comfortable illumination rather than focused task light.

Bulb is not included; the shade is supplied to fit a standard lamp configuration and has been shown with a 26cm diameter form. It is compatible with a variety of table lamp bases and small floor lamp stands. The product carries a 2‑year standard warranty, extendable to 5 years with online registration.

At Lighting Design Online we present the Wickford shade as a straightforward, design‑led choice for schemes that need clarity and restraint. The cotton build and simple form are easy to specify with confidence, and our product notes and warranty information give practical assurance for both domestic and project use.
