30 cm rak empire-skärm i grönt och vitt blocktryckt Dotty rynkad bomull från GP & J Baker

The gathered cotton softens the light so much better than my old plain shade, and the green block print has that slightly imperfect hand-stamped look I was hoping for. It's on a bedside lamp and throws a warm glow without any glare.

The gathered cotton gives the shade a lovely soft texture that diffuses the light beautifully in my living room. The 30cm size works perfectly on my bedside lamp, and the block print pattern looks handcrafted rather than mass-produced.

The green block print is even nicer in person, crisp enough that you can see the little irregularities of the hand printing. The gathered cotton has a good weight to it, so the shade holds its shape instead of sagging. Took me a minute to get it seated evenly on the base, but it looks great now.
