16 cm empire-varjostin, biscuit-sävy, Dotty-painokuviolla, poimutettu puuvilla, GP & J Baker

The gathered cotton has this lovely subtle texture that the photos don't quite capture, and the biscuit color warms up my bedside lamp perfectly. At 16cm it's smaller than I pictured, so measure before you buy, but it suits a little reading nook exactly.

Swapped out my plain linen shade for this biscuit one and the difference is ridiculous—the gathered cotton throws such a warm, soft glow at night. The 16cm size fits my little bedside lamp perfectly, though I measured twice before ordering.

The block-printed dots have a slightly hand-stamped look that makes the biscuit cotton feel way warmer than a plain shade. It throws a soft, even glow over my reading chair without any harsh glare. The gathered pleats at the top sit neatly too, no lumpy seams.
