The Morris & Co. Borage tall tapered lamp shade features the 1883 'Borage' floral pattern, block printed onto card in a red house colourway. The tall tapered silhouette narrows toward the base, concentrating the printed pattern and directing light upward. Block printing onto card produces the authentic surface texture and natural variation associated with Morris's original production methods.
William Morris, a close friend of master engraver Emery Walker, crafted the lively 'Borage' floral pattern in 1883, drawing inspiration from nature. Beloved by bees, this pattern is a lively, spirited floral design with multiple axes of symmetry, creating a captivating focal point in any room. We've carefully block printed 'Borage' onto lampshades, capturing Morris' original technique's timeless charm and unique variations, as once seen in Walker's Hammersmith home-a beautiful blend of history and craftsmanship.
