Hamptons Blue Empire Shade

This shade features a standard spider fitter, which is designed to sit on a harp and be secured with a finial. It is compatible with most traditional table and floor lamps that utilize this common hardware setup.

The empire silhouette, which is wider at the bottom than the top, directs more light downward. This makes it an excellent choice for task lighting on side tables or reading nooks where you want focused illumination.

Yes, the shade is crafted from hand-woven cotton, which provides a sturdy and tactile finish. While it is a natural textile, it is durable enough for standard indoor use, though it should be kept away from direct, harsh sunlight to prevent fading over time.

Because of the delicate pleats and piping, we recommend using a soft microfiber cloth or a gentle dusting brush to remove surface debris. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents, as these can damage the cotton weave and the structure of the pleats.

The chambray gingham is a classic, subtle pattern that acts as a neutral texture rather than a bold statement. It adds character without overwhelming a space, making it a safe choice for both small reading corners and larger living areas.
