16 cm empire-varjostin vaaleanpunaisessa Tuffley-poimutetussa puuvillassa, GP & J Baker

I hung this 16cm empire shade in my hallway and the blush cotton catches the light beautifully—the gathered texture feels far more refined in person than I expected. It’s a small detail, but the way the ‘seaweed’ pattern subtly moves with the pleats makes it feel special. Delighted with this choice

The gathered cotton has this lovely soft texture that catches the light beautifully, and the blush tone is exactly the muted pink I was hoping for. It sits perfectly on my lamp base and gives the whole room a warm, gentle glow.

Finally a shade that actually looks like the vintage botanical prints I've been hunting for—the gathered cotton gives it that soft, lived-in texture. The 16cm diameter fits perfectly on my small bedside lamp without overwhelming the nightstand.
