Fabula Deacon 9cm Round Opal Glass

Small Scale, Soft Light

Neat and unassuming, this 9cm Deacon shade in opal glass is an easy way to soften a small lamp or pendant without changing its scale. The milky white glass diffuses light gently, taking the harshness out of a bare bulb while keeping the room properly lit.

Choosing Your Finish

Opal's frosted white finish is quiet by design, blending into a room rather than drawing the eye. The Deacon shade is also produced in other finishes across the range, so there's the option to bring in more colour if a plain white glow isn't quite what you're after.

How It Works

This shade has no bulb holder of its own, since it's built to sit over an existing pendant or lamp base with a 9cm diameter opening. The frosted opal glass spreads light evenly rather than letting it beam directly, giving a softer overall effect. As with all Deacon shades, bulbs aren't included, so you'll keep using whatever your fitting already takes.

Where It Works Best

Its small size makes this shade especially suited to bedside lamps and reading lights, or to a compact hallway pendant where a larger shade would feel out of place. It also performs well when grouped together in a run of several along a kitchen or dining pendant bar.

Design Details

Part of the Deacon range, this shade is made from genuine opal glass rather than a painted or coated finish, so the milky colour won't chip or wear away over time. Its simple, rounded shape keeps the focus on the softened light rather than on decorative detail.

Questions People Ask

Is this the smallest size in the Deacon opal range?
At 9cm it's one of the smaller options, ideal where you want a subtle shade rather than a bold visual feature.

Can I fit several of these along one pendant bar?
Yes, its compact diameter makes it a good choice for grouping in multiples, especially over a kitchen or dining table.

Does the shade come with its own bulb?
No, you'll continue using the bulb already in your existing lamp or pendant fitting, as the shade is sold separately.
