Parker's Ink Lampshade

From the Emperor’s robes to the Cheongsam of the court’s concubines, Shantung silk has throughout Chinese history symbolised luxury, power and wealth.

The details:

100% pure Shantung silk, stretched around a hard backing of opaque plastic, with hand-rolled edges.

Shantung silk is woven from two distinct threads. It is this unique feature that creates this silk’s signature iridescence. The rich blue-black hue reminds us of fountain pens and ink-stained fingers. Photos simply cannot do it justice.

The slubs, which occur where the threads of silk are twisted together, are a natural feature of Shantung silk, acting as a wonderful reminder of the weaving process.

This shade fits both an E27 and E14 bulb holder (with reducer ring included).
