Lampshade Specifications
Lampshade Specifications: Custom Lighting by Chantier
Welcome to Chantier, where we specialize in creating statement lighting designs. Each of our handmade lampshades is designed, curated, and crafted to order by our small, expert team in Lithuania. Please see below for detailed specifications of our lampshades.
Lampshade Fittings
Our lampshades use industry-standard ring sets, suitable for UK, USA, and EU lamps with standard flex and fitting sets. We include a reducing ring in the central ring fitting, allowing conversion from a 39mm/ES27 fitting to a 29mm Smaller Bayonet Fitting. Our lampshades fit American-style harp lamps but will not fit lamps requiring a lampshade carrier. These fittings can be ordered on request—please contact us with your specific requirements.
For table lamps, the bulb holder sits 4cm from the bottom of the lampshade, while for ceiling pendant lamps, it is positioned 4cm from the top. If you are using an arc floor lamp, you should select a ceiling pendant fitting as the holder will be at the top.
Please note: Flex and fitting sets or table lamps are not included with our lampshades. These are used only for photography purposes.
Lampshade Sizing
We provide lampshade sizing in both centimeters and inches. Refer to our Product Information Guide to find the right shape and size, and choose from the drop-down menu.
Fabric & Wallpaper Samples
Colors, textures, and tones may vary on different screens, so we encourage you to request free fabric and wallpaper samples. You can order samples by emailing neringa@chantier.Lt
Metallic Lined Lampshades
Our gold, silver, champagne and copper-lined lampshades are made using four layers of materials, including the metallic lining, PVC, and your chosen fabric or wallpaper. This ensures that the outer color stays rich and opaque. The light is directional and reflects off the metallic lining, creating a warm glow from the top and bottom of the shade. The amount of light emitted depends on the size of the lampshade—larger shades will provide more light.
Fringing
Our lampshade fringing comes in 10cm or 5cm lengths. Please note that fringing is not included in the overall lampshade dimensions displayed on the proportions image or in the drop-down menu.
Bulbs
The appropriate bulb for your lampshade will depend on the maximum wattage of your lamp or flex set. Please consult the manufacturer’s guide to determine the correct fitting and wattage for your setup. For further assistance, feel free to contact me via email
