The Morris & Co. Bower empire lamp shade carries the 'Bower' pattern, registered in 1877, printed onto cotton in an indigo and barbed berry colourway. The design's dense foliage and floral arrangement is reproduced across the straight empire form, with the printed cotton allowing the pattern's layered detail to remain visible when lit. The 45cm diameter provides substantial coverage, making the shade's surface pattern a prominent feature of the fitting.
