The dupion silk empire lampshade is woven from two distinct thread directions — warp and weft — which produce a natural iridescence that shifts between pink and deeper crimson tones depending on the angle of light. Characteristic slubs, where silk yarn twists more thickly at intervals, are present throughout the fabric as an inherent quality of the natural fibre. The shade is finished with a delicate stitch seam along its edge, adding a refined detail to the construction. Its 16cm empire form suits smaller table lamp and wall light fittings.
