Fabula Buckhurst Round 280/350 x 220mm Fabric Shade - Charcoal Grey & White Laminate - Shade Only

A Contemporary Charcoal Shade for Grown Up Spaces

This Buckhurst shade is a tapered fabric drum finished in charcoal grey on the outside with a white laminate lining, measuring 35cm diameter by 22cm height. The charcoal grey works as a more sophisticated alternative to plain white or cream shades, moving away from the neutral base and giving any room a slightly more deliberate, designed feel. The white interior lining keeps the light output bright and even rather than dim or muddy.

Choosing Your Finish

Charcoal grey is a colour that has matured in popularity over the past decade, no longer feeling trendy but established as a design staple that works in contemporary, minimalist and even eclectic schemes. The white lining means that despite the darker exterior, the light emission remains warm and generous. If you prefer a lighter shade or a different tone, other finishes may be available across the Buckhurst collection.

How It Works

The shade is made from terylene with cotton fabric, lined with PVC and set into an iron frame, keeping it durable for regular household use. Being IP20 rated, it is suitable only for dry indoor areas and should not be exposed to moisture or steam.

Where It Works Best

The charcoal grey finish suits living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and studies where you want a slightly more contemporary, tailored look than a traditional white shade would provide. The darker tone works particularly well in spaces with neutral walls or cooler colour palettes, and it pairs well with modern cabinetry and stainless steel finishes. The shade fits standard pendant and table lamp fittings designed for this size.

Design Details

The tapered drum form sits between a straight cylinder and a fully conical shape, giving it more visual interest than a plain straight shade while maintaining the clean lines expected in contemporary design. The combination of charcoal grey exterior and white interior is practical as well as aesthetic, ensuring you get bright light where you need it while the darker colour provides visual restraint in the room itself.

Questions People Ask

Will the charcoal grey make my room look darker?
The white lining inside keeps the light output bright, so while the shade itself has a contemporary darker tone, the illumination remains warm and generous. The room will feel more designed and intentional rather than dim.

Can I use this with a table lamp as well as a pendant?
Yes, as long as your lamp or pendant has a standard shade fitting for this size, it will work. The 35cm diameter is common for both table lamps and ceiling fittings, so it is a versatile replacement shade.

How do I clean the fabric?
A soft, dry cloth is best for regular maintenance. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth works, but avoid soaking or aggressive scrubbing, as the fabric and laminate are not designed for heavy moisture.
