Every lamp is one of a kind! This Portland, Maine artisan hand crafts all of her own paper for the shade using Abaca pulp that is died and tinted in a variety of colors. To introduce texture, character, and uniqueness to each small paper batch she adds elements from nature gathered in her travels around Maine - wild flowers, berries, grasses, pine needles, thistles, and milkweed are some of her favorites. The end result is a colorful, natural paper molded into a striking new lamp shade.
Each shade is created with a careful awareness as the artisan matches colors and shapes to result in a truly unique lighting experience that is inspired by the natural elements that surround her. The base of the lamp consists of birch and pine that has fallen in the woods, so no living trees are cut.
A perfect addition to any setting or decor - whether for your formal dining room, den, office or bedroom, your room will be uniquely enhanced by the glow of one of these special luminaries.
Lamp is approximately 21in tall. Since each lamp and paper lampshade is handcrafted, the dimensions, colors, shapes, and textures will vary slightly from the images shown. Choose from seven different colors: Green Milkweed, Blue Pearly Everlasting, Lavender Artichoke Flower, Red Lemonbalm, Orange Lemonbalm, Yellow Milkweed, or Natural Pearly Everlasting. Maximum 75-watt bulb recommended.
Handcrafted in Maine.
