The Morris & Co. Bower tall tapered lampshade presents the 1877 Bower pattern on printed cotton in a compact 14cm form, with its narrowing silhouette concentrating the botanical design across a smaller surface area. The boughs green and rose colourway renders the interlocking foliage and floral motifs with layered depth, while the cotton material provides a warm diffusion of light through the printed fabric. Its tapered profile suits smaller fittings where the detailed pattern remains the focal point.
Emery Walker, a master engraver and close collaborator of William Morris, lived just a few hundred yards from Morris in Hammersmith, both enjoying views of the Thames. Among the wonderful designs created by Morris and found in Walker’s house is the enchanting 'Bower' pattern. Registered in 1877, 'Bower' evokes a floral wonderland, brimming with life and vitality. Its name perfectly captures the essence of a pleasant, shaded retreat under trees or climbing plants. We adore how this uplifting design, with its intricate foliage and flowers, has now been beautifully transformed into our lampshades, allowing Morris's timeless creations to live on in modern interiors.
