George — A Warm Composition in Silk Burnout Velvet, Bronze, and Amber
The George shade is equally at home on a floor lamp or a substantial table lamp, its generous proportions and rich coloration making it a striking addition to either setting. This six-panel shade is fashioned from an exquisite silk burnout velvet in warm, inviting tones of brick red, deep green, and dark tan. Beneath the velvet lies a bronze midlining, lending remarkable warmth, depth, and a soft luminous glow to the fabric.
Each vertical panel is outlined with an unusual decorative braid featuring raised threadwork that adds texture and visual interest. The colors within the braid blend beautifully with the fabric, creating a harmonious transition between panels. A metallic braid in rich rust-red tones accents the lower edge of the cuff, while the cuff itself is covered in luxurious rust-red silk velvet. The same distinctive braid encircles both the cuff and the upper crown, providing a refined finishing touch.
A lavish cascade of custom-dyed, silky seven-inch fringe in a copperfield hue graces the lower edge. Layered above are approximately five-inch beaded drops in bronze, amber, and soft rust-red tones, adding movement, sparkle, and period-inspired elegance.
The interior of the shade is equally captivating. Rather than a plain lining, it features a patterned silk in monochromatic gold. As light filters through the shade, the subtle design enhances the interior view, creating an unexpected richness when admired from below.
Fully lined in silk, George is a one-of-a-kind shade whose warm palette and glowing metallic accents evoke the comfort and elegance of a well-appointed Arts and Crafts or early twentieth-century interior.
Size: 20” wide x 12” tall including fringe / fits a floor lamp 58” to 62” tall / also is perfect for a table lamp - 26” x 29” tall or taller
