35cm Straight empire shade in beryl 'poppies' linen by Ellen Merchant

The beryl green linen picks up the light beautifully, and the interlacing stems feel both vintage and fresh at once. I’ve had it over my reading chair for a week now, and the 35cm size is perfect for casting a warm pool of light without overwhelming the room.

The linocut pattern is so crisp and symmetrical, it looks handmade in the best way—like a print you'd frame. The beryl poppies read modern but the Arts & Crafts nod makes it feel timeless. It fits my 35cm base perfectly and instantly warmed up the whole room.

The light it casts through the linen has this warm, soft glow that makes my whole living room feel cozier. I love how the symmetrical stems look both vintage and fresh at the same time, and the 35cm size is perfect above my reading chair.
