The Ellen Merchant Ditzy Floral empire shade features a hand blocked print developed from hand carved wooden blocks, giving each shade a distinctive artisan quality. The design originates from hand-drawn studio work, translated through a traditional block printing process that produces rich, layered colour across the fabric. Its empire silhouette tapers from a wider base to a narrower top, distributing light with a soft, diffused effect.
Here at Pooky, we don't just think that Ellen Merchant is one of the great designers of the future, we think she's one of the top textile designers of today. Hell yes. Graphically she's brilliant and also a genius with colour. We are thrilled to be hooking up with her again. All these designs started in her studio with her trusty pen and paper, and then developed into hand carved wooden blocks. The whole process is long and complex, but we are truly thrilled with the results. We hope you agree.
