Aldex 14 cm spherical glass shade – gloss white

This Aldex spherical shade is made from gloss-white opal glass and measures 14 cm in diameter. Its smooth, rounded shell gives it a different outline from an open fabric lampshade. It is a lighting component rather than a complete, independently usable lamp.

Check the fitting before replacing a shade

The manufacturer identifies Loop, Una and Ball II as compatible fittings and specifies suitability for E14. The mounting opening measures 4 cm in diameter. Compare that opening and the overall size with the existing shade when choosing a replacement. An E14 bulb designation alone does not confirm that the shade attachment matches a particular lamp.

The 14 cm diameter also determines the space occupied by the glass globe. Where several shades sit close together, check their spacing before ordering; visual similarity is not a substitute for matching the dimensions and mounting opening.

White opal glass with a glossy surface

The opal glass diffuses light, while its glossy finish remains part of the appearance when the lamp is switched off. The spherical shape complements modern and modernist fittings. Light colour and brightness also depend on the chosen bulb and the complete lamp construction. The shade itself does not determine light output or control options.
