Fabula Dene 12cm Swirl Round Glass Shade (H) Clear

Flowing Swirls Frozen in Clear Glass

Organic swirling lines run through this 12cm clear glass shade, giving it a fluid, almost liquid looking surface rather than a rigid pattern. It's a replacement shade sized for a standard 12cm pendant or table lamp fitting, letting you change the feel of an existing light in minutes.

Choosing Your Finish

Because the glass stays clear, the swirl pattern shows up mainly as a play of light and shadow rather than a change in colour, so brightness stays high. Each shade's swirls form slightly differently during manufacture, meaning no two are ever quite identical. If the flowing look isn't for you, the wider Dene range covers a number of other shade textures on the same fitting size.

How It Works

This is a passive, non electric shade that simply sits over your existing bulb and fitting, rated for bulbs up to 10W, sold separately, and it takes on the dimming and electrical characteristics of whatever it's paired with. The IP44 rating protects against splashing water from any direction.

Where It Works Best

An IP44 rating means this shade is fine for bathroom zones 1 and 2, our guide to bathroom lighting zones goes into the detail, so above a sink or beside a mirror works well, provided it isn't installed directly inside a shower enclosure. It also suits living rooms, hallways and bedrooms where a softer, more organic quality of light is welcome.

Design Details

The swirling lines form as the glass is shaped, so the pattern is a genuine part of the material rather than a surface effect, and it won't fade or wear with time. It sits alongside several other shade designs in the Dene collection, all built on the same round form but each with its own texture.

Questions People Ask

Is every swirl shade different?
Yes, since the pattern forms naturally during manufacture, the exact placement of the swirls varies slightly between shades.

Can I use it above my bathroom sink?
Yes, it's IP44 rated for zones 1 and 2, so it's fine above a sink or vanity, just keep it clear of the shower itself.

Does the swirl pattern dim the light much?
Only slightly, since the glass remains clear overall, most of the brightness still comes through.
