100% Linen
Linen is a luxurious, lightweight fabric that allows light to diffuse softly, casting a warm glow through its natural fibers.
Incorporating a linen lampshade immediately sets a relaxed, inviting ambiance and illuminates the space beautifully.
Yet, the benefits of linen shades extend far beyond mere aesthetics and visual appeal
How to Clean Your Linen Lampshade
Linen lampshades bring a natural, elegant texture to your lighting, but they attract dust over time. Regular maintenance keeps them looking fresh and ensures even light diffusion. Always start with the gentlest method and test any cleaning solution on a small, hidden area first.
Recommended: Dry Cleaning Methods (Safest for Most Linen Shades)
Dry methods are ideal for routine cleaning and prevent risks like water marks or fabric distortion.
Vacuuming: Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft upholstery brush attachment. Gently run it over the shade (inside and out) on a low suction setting to remove loose dust.
Soft Brushing: Use a clean, unused soft paintbrush or makeup brush to lightly sweep away dust, especially in creases or trims.
Lint Roller or Sticky Tape: Roll a lint roller over the surface for quick dust and pet hair removal.
Hair Dryer: Set to cool and low speed, hold 8–10 inches away to blow off dust from trims and fringes.
For beautifully maintained linen shades:
Spot Cleaning for Stains
For small marks:
Mix a mild solution of warm water and a gentle detergent (like Woolite or dish soap).
Dampen a soft cloth, wring it out well, and gently blot the stain—never rub or soak.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Always unplug and cool the lamp before removing the shade.
Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or machine washing.
If unsure about your shade's construction, stick to dry methods or consult a professional cleaner.
