How accurate is the color shown in the photos?

The photos on our product page are accurate images of the actual shade, taken in controlled lighting. The color you see online reflects the true shade you will receive.

What kind of light does this shade provide?

The woven paper softly diffuses light to create a warm, ambient glow. It's ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, and any setting where you want comfortable, inviting illumination.

Does the shade look different when the lamp is on?

Yes. When lit, the woven paper diffuses light to create a soft, warm glow. This natural diffusion can make the shade appear slightly lighter or warmer than it does when the lamp is off.

Why might the color look different in my home?

The appearance of the shade can vary depending on the lighting in your home, including both your lightbulb and the room’s overall lighting conditions.

A few factors that can change how the color looks:

• Warm bulbs (soft white/yellow) make the shade appear warmer and richer.

• Neutral or bright white bulbs make the shade look lighter and more natural.

• Cool daylight bulbs can make the shade appear brighter and show more texture.

• Natural daylight may shift the appearance throughout the day.

• Wall color and surrounding décor can reflect light and subtly influence the shade’s appearance.

The shade itself does not change, only how your home’s lighting interacts with it.

Which lamps and décor styles does this shade work with?

The empire silhouette pairs beautifully with table lamps, accent lamps, console lamps, and bedside lighting. Its timeless shape complements traditional, transitional, and modern interiors.

What is the shade made of?

This shade is crafted from woven watermarked paper laminated onto 14 pt. polystyrene, creating a lightweight but durable structure with a refined texture.

Is this shade durable?

Yes. The laminated construction provides lasting support, and each shade is hand-finished by skilled artisans for a polished, high-quality appearance.

How do I select the right size?

Choose your shade based on the bottom (base) diameter. As a general guideline, larger lamp bases pair best with larger bottom diameters, while smaller bases look best with more compact shades. Selecting a size proportional to your lamp helps achieve the best visual balance. For additional guidance, please refer to our ++size guide here++.
