30cm エクストリームエンパイアシェード フレンチブルー ジェスター ハンドペイントカード

The blue diamonds really pop when the lamp’s on, and the card feels sturdier than I expected for something hand painted. It adds just the right bit of character to my reading corner without being too loud.

I was a little nervous a shade this detailed might feel busy in my dining room, but the block printed diamonds create such a clean, graphic rhythm against the creamy card. The 30cm size is perfect over our table, and the French blue is even richer in person than on screen.

The hand-painted diamonds look even better in person—the contrast between the French blue and creamy card is sharp but somehow soft under warm light. The 30cm size casts a lovely glow across the room, and the classic empire shape fits my lamp base perfectly.
