30cm rak empire-skärm i beryl 'palmette' linne av Ellen Merchant

The linen has this lovely weight to it, and the beryl color shifts from teal to green depending on the light in the room. The undulating edge throws the softest, most interesting shadows on the ceiling — it's like the shade has its own personality.

The wiggle on that palmette edge is even more charming in person, and the beryl linen gives off a soft, almost watery glow when the lamp's on. I keep catching myself staring at the shadows it throws on the ceiling.

The beryl linen catches the light so beautifully that my living room feels like a little temple to 1970s glamour. The palm leaf pattern with that playful wiggle is even more striking in person, and the 30cm size sits perfectly on my floor lamp.
