SHADE001 - Modern Spiral

This lampshade is defined by a unique organic spiral. It transforms the direct glare of your bulb into a soft, diffused light, capable of instantly warming any space. To create the desired ambiance, I recommend pairing it with a warm, low-wattage bulb.

This lampshade truly comes into its own when mounted on antique or vintage lamp bases. It offers a simple and elegant way to breathe new life into an old piece, adding a touch of modern flair without ever betraying the soul of the original lamp.

Science in the service of aesthetics

What makes 3D printing so fascinating is its ability to push the boundaries of design through creative engineering. This lampshade makes it possible to give form to so-called "impossible" geometries, inaccessible to traditional manufacturing methods.

Produced using the spiral printing technique ( spiral vase ), the piece is printed in a single, continuous line. This process eliminates any visible seams or joints, resulting in a perfectly smooth and homogeneous finish. However, it imposes strict physical constraints, particularly regarding printing angles. The strength of this design lies precisely in this challenge: the very complexity of the spiral provides the structural support necessary to achieve extreme angles in single-line printing.

Choose your finish

Beyond the choice of color, two nozzle diameters are offered, each influencing the visual identity of the lampshade:

0.8 mm nozzle — Bold & structural
This option uses a thicker filament, making the printing layers intentionally visible and textured. It gives the lamp a strong, almost industrial presence and creates a striking interplay of light and shadow, accentuated by the spiral's relief.

0.4 mm nozzle — Ultra refined
This option creates extremely thin layers. The texture becomes subtle, the surface smooth and elegant, evoking the look of frosted glass. Light diffusion is more homogeneous and particularly soft.

Main features

• Unique texture : the 3D printed patterns bring depth and dynamism, transforming the lighting into a true design object, both functional and decorative.

• Versatile compatibility : designed to fit both contemporary E27 or E14 sockets and vintage lamp bases. Three custom adapters are included to ensure a perfect fit right out of the box.

• Quarter turn locking : once the support is in place, the lampshade can be easily changed with a simple locking movement.

• Premium material & usage recommendations : Made from high-quality, heat-resistant polymers (up to approximately 80°C) for optimal durability. The use of traditional or "old-fashioned" incandescent light bulbs is strongly discouraged: the heat they emit can damage or deform the 3D printed material.

WARNING: Lampshades are sold WITHOUT the lamp base or bulb.
