45cm ストレートエンパイアシェード アクア×ピンク ドッティ ブロックプリント ギャザーコットン GP & J Baker製

The 45cm size is a bit of a statement, and the aqua pink block print looks even richer in person than in photos. The gathered cotton has a nice weight to it, so it holds its shape instead of sagging like my old shade did.

I swapped out my plain linen shade for this aqua pink block print and the whole room warmed up instantly. The 45cm empire shape throws light really evenly, and that little hand-blocked dot pattern keeps catching my eye from across the sofa.

I was worried the 45cm size would overwhelm my small living room, but the aqua pink block print is soft enough that it just adds a nice pop of color. The gathered cotton has a lovely texture up close, and it throws a warm, even light over the sofa in the evening.
