Exclusive Prints & High-Quality Materials

Our fabric design begins with an initial hand-drawn sketch, where we explore and develop the core motifs and compositions. We translate these sketches into hand-carved lino blocks, adding texture and a unique tactile quality to the design. After carving, our initial prints are created using traditional lino printing techniques to test and refine the pattern. Finally, we use modern fabric printing processes, combining the authenticity of handmade art with the precision and versatility of contemporary technology.

Expert Craftsmanship

We hand make all the lampshades at our Norfolk studio.

From the initial cutting of the fabric, to the final hand-finishing touches, every step in the process is carried out with precision, care, and intention.

Each lampshade is handmade and undergoes a quality check before leaving our studio.

Practical Features

  • Perfect Light Diffusion

    The shades soften the light, turning harsh brightness into a gentle glow that settles beautifully into the room.

  • Easy to Fit

    Shades are supplied with UK and European lamp holders or Pendant Fittings. Frames can also be used with USA Harp and finial fittings by using our converting washers. Where specified, our Empire and conical lampshades are supplied with a shade carrier to install on your table or floor lamp base.

  • Durable Finish

    The printed fabric resists fading, even when placed near natural light sources.

  • Coordinated Styling

    Match your lampshade to cushions, curtains or trays in the same print to create a harmonious scheme.

Care & Maintenance

To keep your bespoke shade looking its best:

Dust Gently
Use a soft brush or feather duster to remove surface dust.

Spot Clean Only
Lightly dab any marks with a damp cloth and avoid harsh detergents.

Avoid Direct Heat
Do not place shades directly under high-heat bulbs (e.g. halogen)—LED or low-wattage bulbs are recommended.

These simple steps will maintain the vibrancy of your made to order lampshade and prolong its lifespan.
