Read our privacy policy A well-chosen lampshade, whether it sits pretty on a standard lamp, table lamp or hung from the ceiling, has the ability to transform a room in an instant, bringing a burst of character to the bedroom or living space. And you don’t need enormously deep pockets to snap up a design-led piece – many high street brands and smaller designer-makers offer striking, well-crafted lampshades at a fraction of the cost of their designer counterparts. Whether we’re after a shade that’s vintage-inspired, complete with elaborate fringing, one made from calming natural materials, or one that gives your room a vibrant colour pop, a good lampshade should emit softly diffused light for a cosy, ambient glow.
