14cm Tall tapered shade in papavero 'poppies' linen by Ellen Merchant

The linocut pattern is so crisp and the papavero red pops beautifully against the linen weave. It throws a warm, even glow that makes my living room feel instantly more inviting. I keep catching myself staring at how the stems interlace when the light hits them.

The tapered shape casts a lovely soft glow, and the linen texture makes those poppy stems feel almost tactile against the light. It’s the perfect little accent for my reading nook, and the 14cm size fits the lamp base just right.

The poppies look even richer in person—the linen’s texture gives the linocut pattern a hand-printed depth you don’t get from photos. It’s a perfect 14cm scale for my bedside lamp, casting a warm, soft glow that makes the stems almost glow.
