The 'Coolicon' lampshade handmade to the classic design, patented by Benjamin Electric of north London in 1933, was added to their range of lighting which includes the ‘RLM’ & ‘Benflux’ lampshades.
We are a UK lighting company with sustainability at our core. Every shade is built to last - a principle that guides our design and business. That’s why we have introduced our graded lampshades.
Grade A Lampshades reveal one or more imperfections. It’s not likely that these flaws would be noticed as lighting is normally viewed from a distance.
Factory Second A Grade - 'A close look reveals imperfections'. Lighting is generally viewed at a distance. Once installed, it's unlikely these flaws will be noticed.
Manufacturing Seconds
Due to the handcrafted nature, some of the engineering and manufacturing processes we use - such as coating - create a low but unavoidable level of QC (quality control) failures.
