About Flexible decorative textile tubing

Flexible decorative textile tubing: a versatile solution for your lighting projects

Flexible decorative textile tubing is the perfect accessory to add a stylish finish to your lamp cables or create custom cable paths in your lighting installations. Its combination of flexibility, resistance and decorative appearance makes it an essential element for both DIY enthusiasts and professionals who want to give their projects a polished and unique look.

1. What is flexible decorative textile tubing?
This tubing is a hollow, flexible sheath covered with a decorative textile braid. It is designed to protect and dress electrical cables while adding colour and texture. Unlike standard cable conduits, it is much more attractive and allows you to integrate visible wiring into your décor.

2. Uses and applications
The flexible decorative textile tubing is ideal for:

  • Covering and protecting lamp cables in pendant lights, table lamps and floor lamps.

  • Creating visible cable paths along walls or ceilings in a decorative way.

  • Restoring vintage lamps by adding a refined and updated finish.

  • Grouping several cables together for a cleaner look in complex installations.

3. Materials and finishes
Our decorative tubing is made with high-quality textile fibres and an inner flexible structure that allows it to adapt easily to curves and irregular shapes. It is available in multiple colours (black, white, grey, beige, natural tones and vibrant options) so you can match it with your lamp holders, ceiling roses, bases and other components.

4. Easy to install and customise
The tubing can be cut to size with simple tools (scissors or a sharp cutter) and easily slid over the cable. Because it is flexible, it adapts perfectly to different lengths and shapes, allowing for complete customisation.

5. Perfect for DIY and decorative projects
If you enjoy designing or restoring lamps, this tubing will give your projects a professional finish. Combine it with our textile decorative cables, lamp holders and accessories to create unique lighting designs where even the smallest details stand out.

Can I install decorative textile tubing on an already wired lamp?

Yes. Simply disconnect the lamp from the power, slide the tubing over the cable and reconnect. It’s a quick way to upgrade an existing lamp.

Does the tubing protect the cable from damage?

Yes. In addition to its decorative function, the tubing provides an extra layer of protection against friction and dust, helping to extend the life of the cable.

Can I cut the tubing to the exact length I need?

Absolutely. It can be cut with scissors or a sharp cutter. To prevent fraying, it’s best to seal the ends with heat or use an end cap.

Is flexible decorative textile tubing heat-resistant?

Yes, it is designed to withstand the normal heat generated by lamp cables and bulbs. However, it should not be used in direct contact with high-temperature sources.
