The piece

All-Fabric · Oversized Drum Shade · Sculptural Floor Lamp

An oversized fabric floor lamp in the language of late-1990s sculptural Dutch design — a wide drum shade balanced on a tall conical fabric base, both finished in the same crisp white textile. The proportion is deliberately exaggerated: shade larger than expected, base taller than expected, the silhouette reading as a single soft form rather than a fixture.

Light passes through the woven shade and the body alike, glowing the entire form from within rather than projecting downward. Available in three sizes from 120 cm tall (a generous side-table or reading scale) up to a 200 cm statement piece for double-height entries and gallery interiors. Suited to modern, minimalist, Scandinavian, and contemporary art-forward rooms.


All-Fabric Body

Shade and base both in the same white textile — reads as a single sculptural form.

Glow-Through Light

Light diffuses through the entire fabric body, ambient rather than directional.

Three Heights

From 120 cm reading scale to a 200 cm statement piece for double-height interiors.


Small · H 120 cm

∅ 55 cm × H 47.2″. Beside-armchair reading scale, suits bedrooms and small living rooms.

Medium · H 160 cm

∅ 75 cm × H 63″. Standing room scale — anchors a sofa corner or dining sideboard.

Statement · H 200 cm

∅ 75 cm × H 78.7″. Gallery and double-height entry scale — built to be seen as sculpture.

Plug-in floor lamp · all-fabric construction. The lamp ships with a 150 cm (59″) plug cord — no hardwiring required. The fabric body is rigid but the surface is woven textile; spot-clean only with a barely damp cloth, and avoid solvents or harsh detergents. Indoor use only — keep away from direct sun and humidity.

  • For dimming, use a dimmable LED bulb paired with an inline cord dimmer (sold separately).

Which size suits my space? +

The Small (H 120 cm / 47″) suits beside an armchair or sofa for reading. The Medium (H 160 cm / 63″) anchors a sofa corner or stands as a sculptural object beside a console. The Statement (H 200 cm / 79″) is built for double-height entries, gallery rooms, and modern lofts where the lamp itself is meant to be seen as a piece.

Is the Cassia dimmable? +

The lamp itself isn't dimmable, but you can dim it with the right bulb. Install a dimmable LED bulb (E26 US / E27 EU) and pair with an inline cord dimmer between the lamp and the wall outlet. Warm white 2700K–3000K is recommended to flatter the white fabric.

Does it require hardwiring? +

No — it's a plug-in floor lamp. The 150 cm (59″) cord plugs into a standard wall outlet, so no electrician is needed. Just place near an outlet and plug in.

How is the fabric body constructed? +

The shade and base are both built on rigid internal frames covered in the same white textile, giving the lamp its single-form sculptural look. The fabric is taut and structured, but the surface is woven — keep it dry, and spot-clean only with a barely damp cloth.

What kind of light does it cast? +

Light glows through the entire fabric body — both the shade and the base — rather than projecting downward like a typical drum-shade lamp. The result is soft, ambient, all-around illumination, closest to a piece of glowing furniture than a directed reading light.

Care & delivery

Looking after it

Dust with a soft dry cloth. Stone, plated and painted finishes dislike solvents and abrasives, so keep both away from them; glass takes a lint-free cloth and a little glass cleaner. Solid brass is left unlacquered on most pieces and will warm and darken with handling, which is the material behaving as it should rather than a fault. Switch a fixture off and let it cool before cleaning it.

Who makes it

This piece is manufactured for Elio Marchetti by Radilum, our production partner for the collection.

We are a lighting house rather than a factory. We select the pieces, specify the finishes and the stone, and hold the relationship with the maker, and we would rather tell you that plainly than leave it unsaid. Questions about the manufacture of a specific fixture are welcome and we will answer them.

Delivery

Allow 28 to 43 business days from order to arrival, roughly six to nine weeks. Most of the collection is made to order, so that time covers the piece being built in the finish and size you chose, checked, packed and shipped. The same window applies wherever you are.

Shipping is free to Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia, with no minimum order.

Returns

You have ten days from receiving a piece to have it on its way back to us, under way inside those ten days rather than simply flagged with us on the tenth. Return postage on a change of mind is yours, there is no restocking fee, and the outcome is a refund to your original payment method rather than store credit. Made to order pieces return on the same terms as stock. Contact us before sending anything back.

Damaged or faulty on arrival

Separate from an ordinary return, and a longer window: twenty days from receipt to report it. Tell us before you send anything, keep the packaging until we have answered, and photographs of both the fault and the box help. Where a piece is faulty, damaged in transit or not what you ordered, we cover the return postage.

Installation

Any hardwired fixture should go in with a licensed electrician. Where a piece has particular requirements, a sloped ceiling, a chain that can be shortened, a specific socket, they are listed further up this page.
