The straight empire lampshade combines a soft ivory tone with dupion silk, a fabric known for its natural lustre that synthetic materials cannot replicate. Its woven structure occasionally features slubs — slight thickening where two silk threads twist together — which are inherent to the natural fibre rather than a defect. The straight empire profile provides a clean, upright silhouette that diffuses light with a warm, soft glow.
