The 25cm empire lampshade is constructed from dupion silk, woven from two distinct threads to produce a fabric with natural iridescence. The saffron colourway shifts between a rich orangey ochre and a milder yellow depending on the light source and viewing angle, a quality inherent to dupion's warp-and-weft structure. Natural slubs — areas where silk yarn threads are twisted more thickly — appear throughout the fabric as a characteristic of the material's organic origin.
