Looking back at the biggest lampshade I’ve ever recovered 🤩
When I LOVE THAT, a brilliant vintage dealer specialising in mid-century modern furniture and lighting, brought this shade to me, I knew I was in for quite a week!
He’d found it on one of his sourcing trips, stored in a leaky warehouse and water damaged, but it was just too special to give up on!
The numbers alone are pretty wild, a drum shade at 95cm wide and 62cm tall, sitting on a base a further 138cm high. In total, 200cm or 6ft 6” of lampshade 💚
I had to completely rearrange the studio and put up extra tables just to fit it in. At one point I had to call Martha in to help me roll the base!
The customer wanted a simple off white fabric, and to be honest, at that size the shade doesn’t really need anything else. The sheer size of it is a statement all by itself ✨
One week, a rearranged studio, and one very happy customer, I think we did it justice 💚
