Fabula Cranbourne 30cm Tiffany Shade - Grey - Shade Only

A Grey Tiffany Shade to Refresh an Existing Lamp Base

This Cranbourne shade uses the traditional leaded glass Tiffany technique, with small angular pieces of grey toned glass arranged in an Aztec inspired geometric pattern. The leaded construction gives the shade real depth and texture, changing character depending on whether the lamp behind it is on or off, and the cooler grey palette works with a wider range of base styles than classic Tiffany colours would.

Choosing Your Finish

The grey glass here leans away from the deep greens and reds typical of traditional Tiffany work, which makes it easier to pair with bases in black, chrome, brushed nickel, or dark wood without a clash. As a shade only piece, you are free to match it to whichever base finish already suits your room. If you like the Aztec pattern but want a different colourway, other tones may be available across the wider shade range.

How It Works

This is a shade only product, sold without a lamp base or any electrical components. The leaded glass construction is structurally self supporting and designed to fit any lamp base with a standard medium fitting collar, so it is straightforward to use as a replacement for a tired or damaged existing shade. The many small glass pieces and lead lines catch the light and create real visual interest once a bulb is switched on behind them.

Where It Works Best

This shade suits living rooms, bedrooms, dining areas, and hallways, wherever you have a lamp base that could use a decorative update. It works nicely on a bedside table or console lamp, and the geometric Aztec pattern adds character without tipping into novelty, so it sits comfortably in both contemporary and more traditional room schemes.

Design Details

What makes this shade work is the balance between pattern and colour. The Aztec inspired geometry keeps the eye moving around the shade, while the grey palette stops it from feeling heavy or dated. The leaded glass technique is the craftsmanship at the heart of the piece, with individual pieces of glass carefully cut and soldered together into a shade that is structurally sound as well as being a light diffuser and colour filter.

Questions People Ask

Will this shade fit my existing lamp base?
If your base has a standard medium threaded fitting collar that takes a shade harp, then yes. Measure the collar diameter and check it matches the 31cm width of this shade before ordering.

What colour light will this give?
The grey glass filters and slightly warms the light that passes through it, depending on which bulb type you use in your lamp. The effect is softer and less dramatic than traditional Tiffany colours.

Can I use this with any bulb type?
The shade itself is bulb agnostic, so it will work with incandescent, LED, or halogen bulbs. Just check that your lamp base is rated for whatever bulb type and wattage you choose.
