The Taj empire lampshade is constructed from a lightweight, finely woven silk with a matt, monochrome finish achieved through dyeing rather than weave-based colour variation. Unlike dupion silk, Taj silk has fewer slubs and a more uniform surface, producing a cleaner, more even appearance. Its natural translucency allows light to pass through the fabric, creating a soft diffused glow.
Our Taj silk a very delicate lightweight silk, without so many slubs and imperfections. Its colour is matt and monochrome since it is dyed, as opposed to our Dupion silk that has contrasting colours woven into it, and creates a very different effect. It has a lovely translucency and creates beautiful lampshades.
