Sorella Glenn Shade

This shade uses a standard washer fitter, which is designed to sit on top of a harp and be secured with a finial. It is compatible with most traditional table and floor lamps that utilize this hardware.

The hand-folded shirred pleats create subtle variations in fabric thickness, which softens the light as it passes through. This results in a warm, diffused glow rather than a harsh, direct beam.

The pattern is achieved through the fabric's design, which is then meticulously hand-folded and pinned to create the shirred effect. The vertical orientation of the stripes helps draw the eye upward, adding height to your lamp.

To maintain the integrity of the pleats, use a soft-bristled brush or a microfiber cloth to gently dust the shade. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners, as these can damage the fabric and the hand-sewn construction.

The Empire shape features a classic silhouette with a wider base than the top, providing a balanced, traditional look. This geometry is versatile and works well with a variety of lamp bases, from slender candlesticks to more substantial ceramic forms.
