We’ve got tons of large and extra-large lampshades in a huge range of styles, so you don’t have to worry about finding that perfect match for your table lamp, ceiling light, or anything else you want to throw a lampshade on.

We’re really not shy when it comes to lampshades and we’ve got them in all sorts of materials on our site - fabric, plastic, glass or metal. No problem, we’ve got it. When you’re making a big choice about a big lampshade it’s worth considering how the material affects the appearance and light distribution around the room. It’s not all about the big impact the lamp shade itself will make on the space, but how the light will impact the space itself.

Fabric lampshades are a well-loved choice, they’re naturally versatile. Coming in a wide range of colours and patterns whilst being very budget friendly makes them the obvious choice for adding that little spark to a room without burning through the budget.
If it’s drama you’re after, then a large metal lampshade might be a more premium options that’ll throw your home into a more contemporary design scheme.

Oh, elegance and a touch of sophistication is more your style? Well, that sounds like a job for a large glass lampshade. Offering a more modern or traditional touch.

So, when you’re kitting your lampshade out with a bulb there are three things to consider: brightness, temperature and the overall efficiency of the bulb. Our large lampshades are designed to work with a range of bulb types. Including good old  LED light bulbs which are long lasting and a super energy efficient option. 

A cooler colour temperature may be suitable for task lighting or creating a more contemporary atmosphere, while a warmer colour temperature may be better for cosy or ambient lighting. Check out our Bulb Guide for fool proof tips on choosing the right bulb. 

The height and width of the lamp base and shade are really important when you’re picking a large lampshade. A good baseline formula is that the height of the shade should be about ⅔ of the size of the lamp base, the width should be wider than the widest part of the lamp base. It can be as wide as your keen eye for style dictates (but maybe cap it at the width of the surface the lamp is on).

Of course, if you’re looking to create a design statement, you might want to bend the rules a bit and opt for a shade that’s a little taller or a little wider than the guidelines. However, safety is key and you should make sure that the large lampshade will fit securely on the base of the lamp without putting it at risk of tilting or tipping over.

Our large and extra-large lampshades are designed to add the perfect finish to your layout, whether that is a contemporary edge or an elegant glow.
