The Empire lampshade is crafted from Dupion silk, a fabric woven from two distinct threads — warp and weft — that produces a natural iridescence shifting between a rich orangey ochre and a softer yellow depending on the angle of light. The weave includes characteristic slubs, where silk yarn twists more thickly at intervals, adding organic texture to the surface. A delicate stitch seam finishes the edge, reflecting the hand-finished nature of the material. Measures 16cm in diameter.
