Fabula Deacon 18cm Round Opal Glass

A Bigger Glow for Bigger Spaces

This 18cm Deacon shade in opal glass is sized to make a genuine impact, whether hung on its own over a dining table or as the anchor point of a larger room. The milky white glass spreads whatever bulb sits behind it into a soft, relaxed glow rather than a single harsh point of light.

Choosing Your Finish

The opal finish keeps things calm and neutral, letting the shade's size do the work rather than relying on colour or pattern. The Deacon shade is also available in other finishes across the range, so there's an option if you'd rather introduce some warmth or colour instead.

How It Works

There's no bulb holder inside this shade, as it's designed to fit onto an existing pendant or lamp base with an 18cm diameter opening. Once fitted, the frosted glass spreads light evenly across the room, softening shadows and avoiding a single bright hotspot. Bulbs aren't included, so you'll continue using whatever your current fitting takes.

Where It Works Best

Given its scale, this shade suits open plan kitchens, living rooms, and dining spaces with higher ceilings, where a larger shade helps balance the proportions of the room. It also works well as a single striking pendant in an entrance hallway.

Design Details

Part of the Deacon range, this shade is made from genuine opal glass, with the white colouring built into the glass rather than applied as a coating that could wear away. The simple, rounded form is designed to let its size and softness of light stand out, rather than adding unnecessary decoration.
