40cm rechte empire kap in blos Tuffley geplooide katoen van GP & J Baker

The blush is so much richer in person than on screen, and the gathered cotton catches the light beautifully when the lamp is on. It’s exactly the soft, romantic glow I wanted for our reading nook, and the 40cm size feels perfectly balanced on our side table.

I was nervous the gathered cotton would feel too heavy, but the scale of the 40cm empire shape makes it look airy, and the blush reads almost like a soft watercolor in daylight. The historical botanical print on the fabric gives it a lovely texture that plays nicely with my linen sofa.

The blush tone is far more delicate in person than on screen, and the gathered cotton gives the shade a soft, sculptural texture that suits my bedroom perfectly. The 40cm size is generous enough to make a statement, and the Victorian-era pattern looks surprisingly modern.
