Ceiling Shades

How often are new ceiling shades added to the range?

New ceiling shades are added to our wholesale range on an ongoing basis as fresh styles and materials arrive. Our New in Ceiling Shades section is updated every time new stock lands, making it the quickest way to discover the latest additions across drum shades, empire shades, tapered shades, glass pendant shades and metal shades. For trade buyers who want to be first to know about new arrivals, signing up to our trade emails is the best way to stay ahead of the latest shade trends.

What are the latest ceiling shade trends for trade buyers?

Some of the strongest current trends in wholesale ceiling shades include ribbed and pleated fabric shades in warm neutral tones, oversized empire shades in textured linen, smoked and amber tinted glass pendant shades and slim tapered metal shades in matte black and brushed brass finishes. Our New in Ceiling Shades section is updated regularly with styles that reflect these trends as soon as they arrive, giving trade buyers the opportunity to refresh existing schemes or specify new ones with confidence that the styles they're choosing feel genuinely current.

Can I use a new ceiling shade with my existing pendant fitting?

In most cases yes, provided the shade opening is compatible with the lamp holder on your existing fitting. All of our wholesale ceiling shades come with a standard 4cm opening for E27 lamp holders and include a reducer ring as standard that brings the opening down to 3cm for E14 compatibility, making them suitable for use with the vast majority of pendant fittings. If you have a specific compatibility query about pairing a new arrival shade with an existing fitting, our Trade Team is happy to advise.

Are new ceiling shade arrivals available in bulk?

Yes, all new ceiling shade arrivals are available at wholesale trade prices with bulk discounts applied from day one. For trade buyers refreshing a full hotel or development scheme, ordering replacement shades in bulk is a cost effective way to update multiple rooms in one go without the need to replace entire fittings. Whether you need a small batch for a single project or a larger quantity across a full development, our trade pricing structure ensures excellent value at any order size.

Do new ceiling shades work with existing lamp bases and floor lamps?

Ceiling shades are specifically designed for use with pendant and ceiling fittings rather than table lamp or floor lamp bases, which use a different shade carrier system. If you're looking to refresh shades across table lamps or floor lamps as well as ceiling fittings, our shades range covers all shade types across all fitting styles, with new arrivals updated regularly throughout. Our Trade Team can advise on shade compatibility across different fitting types if you need guidance on mixing and matching across a full project specification.
