Where it goes, and what color

The two parts print separately, so they can be different colours. What you pick here decides the filament, and the filament decides the price.

Use Base color Shade color

Pick the same colour twice for a matching lamp, or two for a contrast. Each part is priced on its own filament.

The base

What stands on the table and carries everything above it. Its width is what keeps the lamp upright, so this step decides more than how it looks.

Silhouette — the outline seen from the side

Cross-section — the shape seen from below Base height — 190 mm

Socket fitting — the hole through the neck

Bored through a collar that stands proud of the neck, plus clearance because printed holes come out tight. The shade’s cap is cut to that same collar, so it drops over it and is located by it — one number, both parts, and no harp to buy.

Cord & mounting Cord exit — where it leaves the base

Underside — how it is hollowed

Ballast

Base texture

The surface printed into the base wall. Unlike the shade, no light comes through it — this is about how it catches a lamp’s own glow from above.

Surface texture Twist — 0°

Twist rotates the texture as it rises. Past a point the wall cannot follow it — the printability check will say so before you export.

The shade

The top shape. Same shade the pendant designer makes, turned over: its cap is at the bottom, where it drops onto the base’s neck. It still prints the other way up — wide end on the plate, cap at the top, so nothing flares out over thin air. You turn it over to fit it.

Show the shade in the preview

Turn it off to see the base and its collar while you work. Nothing about the design, the price or the exported files changes.

Silhouette Shade height — 200 mm Shade texture Bottom cap — what it sits on the base with

Finish

How finely both parts print.

Print finish

Standard — 0.6 mm layers. The fastest run, and what most bases are printed in.

Premium — 0.4 mm layers. Finer lines and a smoother surface; it spends longer on the machine.
