Our history
One of the most popular custom lampshades to purchase online is the drum lampshade due to its simplicity; it can complement virtually every interior design.
Handmade bespoke drum lampshades are great for use on lamps and can also act as a pendant.
We craft handmade lampshades using traditional methods of manufacture, such as hand stretching fabric over wired framing. This can be a time-consuming process but will provide a unique, bespoke finish.
Our bespoke modern lampshades will have a PVC backing and this allows for greater variety in styles and shapes as the wiring can be moulded to whatever shape you desire.

The most popular and common types of fabric used for lampshades include linen, cotton and silk. As a rule of thumb, woven and non-stretchable fabrics are best for use on lampshades.
The colour of your lampshades should complement your interior design and can add a lot to the feel of a living space, providing a balanced aesthetic. You may want to match your lampshades to your furniture or choose a vibrant, contrasting colour to make them stand out.
