Flambeau shades have classically been used for art deco & art nouveau lighting. Our most popular sizes are 7″, 9″ and 16″ high although others can sometimes be found. It is important that special attention is paid to the neck size you require to ensure a correct fit.
The onion or lotus shade is called so due to its distinctive shape, like the hurricane shade it is wide at the base before tapering in the waist and fluting outwards at the top, the difference being that the onion/lotus is considerably shorter by proportion. Generally a pattern would be etched or frosted onto the shade.
The blue, opal and cranberry shades are just a sample of the colours we are able to produce in a number of styles. Coloured shades can transform a room and compliment your lighting piece.
If you require a shade with more detail then we can recommend scalloped shades. This is when the top of the shade has a wave like pattern cut into, they can be large or small cuts and sometimes feature points rather than smooth curves.
We are able to etch, engrave, frost (sandblast) or paint patterns onto a number of shades. Whether you have a design of your own or you would like us to recommend a design in keeping with the style of your piece, our skilled glass cutters can produce shades or we can even source antique shades to replace lost or broken items.
Hurricane shades were originally designed to stop drafts blowing out candles. They are somewhat like a vase and flare at the top to diffuse the light. Available in various heights, they can also be patterned or coloured.
This shade has the Greek key pattern engraved into the glass rather than the pattern being formed onto the glass. Some may prefer this shade due to the extra depth that is created when light is refracted by the shade. This or many other patterns can be used on a variety of shades and not just the hurricane as pictured.
The Greek key pattern is just one example of the patterns that can be used on shades. This shade in particular also features ‘thumb’ cutting at the base which adds the the decorativeness of the light dispersal.
