40 cm gerader Empire-Schirm in Rot-Aqua, Tuffley-Geraffter Baumwolle von GP & J Baker

The empire shape is elegant and the gathered cotton gives it a lovely soft texture that filters light beautifully. I was slightly worried about the size but 40cm is perfect for our reading corner, and the red aqua pattern has that historic botanical charm you don’t find in modern shades.

The red aqua colourway is far richer in person than on screen—the seaweed-like swirls really pop when the light hits them. The cotton has a lovely softness and the 40cm size feels perfectly proportioned over our dining table. I've already caught myself staring at the shade more than the food.

The red aqua tones are even richer in person than on screen, and the gathered cotton has a lovely softness that catches the light beautifully. It fits my 40cm base perfectly, and the mid-19th century 'seaweed' pattern adds such an elegant, organic touch to the room.
