Scandinavian Wall Light with a Pleated Cream Shade
A gourd-shaped shade in soft cream, ribbed with fine pleats that twist as they run down its curves, hung from a gold arch. The silhouette narrows, swells and narrows again — closer to a hand-thrown vase than a lampshade. Among Scandinavian wall lights, this is the version with a bit of movement in it.
Pleats that catch the light unevenly
Because the ribs spiral rather than run straight, each one takes the light at a slightly different angle and the shade shades itself. The result is a surface that reads as textured cream by day and glows in bands when lit, with no bright spot anywhere.
Cream and gold, quiet by design
30 cm tall on a 10 cm plate — enough presence to fill a narrow wall, small enough to sit in pairs beside a bed. Cream and gold belong with clay, oat and off-white walls, oak and linen. It suits a bedside, a hallway, or the wall beside a reading chair.

Frequently asked questions
Is the shade ceramic?
No. It is moulded PVC with a matte cream finish, which is why a 30 cm shade with this much detail stays light enough to hang from a slim arch — and why it will not chip like ceramic.
How much light does it give?
The shade is opaque with an open bottom, so most of the light falls downward. It works as bedside and accent lighting rather than as the main light in a room.

Bedside lamp questions, answered
Everything you need to know before ordering — bulbs, delivery, returns and safety.
Which bulb do I need for my bedside lamp?
Most of our bedside lamps use a standard E27 (large screw) or E14 (small screw) fitting — you'll find the exact base type in the Specifications table above. All fittings are standard in the UK, so bulbs are easy to find in any supermarket or online. For a bedside lamp we recommend a warm white bulb (2700K) between 25W and 60W equivalent: it gives the soft, cosy glow a bedroom needs, rather than the cold light of a work lamp.
Can I use an LED bulb with this lamp?
Yes. All our lamps work with LED bulbs, and we actually recommend them: an LED uses up to 90% less energy than a traditional bulb, stays cool to the touch and lasts 15,000+ hours. Choose a warm white LED (2700K) for a relaxing bedside light, and a dimmable LED if you plan to use a dimmer.
How long does delivery take in the UK?
Your order is prepared and dispatched within 24 to 48 hours. Delivery across the UK then typically takes 7 to 12 working days, and every parcel is sent with tracking — you'll receive your tracking number by email as soon as your lamp ships, and you can follow it at any time on our Track Your Order page.
What if the lamp doesn't suit my bedroom?
No problem. You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind and return your lamp for a refund. Check the dimensions in the Specifications table before ordering to make sure it fits your nightstand — and if you're unsure whether a style will work in your room, our team is happy to advise before you buy.
Are your lamps safe and UK compatible?
Yes. Every lamp we sell is CE certified and designed to work with standard UK plugs, sockets and bulbs. Fabric and wood models use heat-safe fittings, and we recommend LED bulbs for the coolest, safest operation — especially for children's night lights.
Is it safe to order on your website?
Completely. Checkout is protected by SSL encryption and handled by Shopify Payments, the same secure system used by over a million stores worldwide. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Apple Pay and Google Pay, and our customer support team is available 7 days a week, 9am to 7pm, if you need help with an order.
