Design Features
This wall shade emphasizes precision, protection, and controlled illumination. The combination of square geometry and rounded hood creates balance between architectural clarity and softened edges.
Overall form and geometry
The shade is defined by a square backplate paired with a compact half-dome hood attached at the top. The crisp square outline maintains an architectural, clean presence, while the rounded hood softens the silhouette and adds depth without bulk.
Hood profile and light control
The half-dome functions as a glare guard, shielding the bulb from direct view and pushing light downward and outward. This controlled distribution makes it well suited for subtle guidance lighting along walls, stair edges, or narrow corridors.
Backplate details and hardware
Two exposed flathead screws anchor the face, reinforcing a utilitarian and heritage-driven aesthetic. Straight plate edges and squared corners create a precise perimeter that looks intentional when installed in pairs, rows, or rhythmic repeats.
Surface character
The metal surface shows natural wear and small tonal shifts consistent with an aged brass finish. These variations give the shade depth and a collected, time-worn feel rather than a perfectly uniform appearance.
Best-use intent
This is a low-profile protective wall cover suited to tight spaces where controlled light and durable presence are preferred over decorative silhouettes. Its compact scale keeps it discreet while still delivering functional illumination.
