Empire Lampshades

Light has a way of revealing the character of a room, especially when the shade is doing more than simply diffusing glare. Empire lampshades bring a classic silhouette to table lamps and pendants, with proportions that suit both traditional and more pared-back interiors. Expect Victorian-inspired shapes in cotton, faux silk and velvet, finished with tassels and textured detailing, plus considered tones from silky cream and jet black to forest green, lilac and blush. Brands include Happy Homewares.
