Made to Measure Paisley Lampshades

Made to Measure Lampshades

We have several Paisley designs for Made to Measure Lampshades. Paisley is a vegetal motif, often shaped like a droplet or kidney bean. The Paisley patterned fabric originates from stylised pine cones from Kashmir.

From roughly 1800 to 1850, the weavers of the town of Paisley in Renfrewshire, Scotland, became the foremost producers of Paisley shawls.

We love paisley fabric. See the Life and Eternity Detail, and Paisley Ground designs: they are a pattern framed within a pattern, making an absolute cornucopia of colour and shape. If you are familiar with paisley, then you must know of its lovely lace-like motif that features an intricate pattern of curved, feather-shaped figures. Paisley fabric designs are timeless and forever popular. If paisley patterns are too “busy” for you, consider ours because my chosen colour palette of soft shades creates a very gentle feel in a room.

Each bespoke lampshade is beautifully made in our local workshops by professionals, and hand finished with great care and attention. Our makers use traditional methods and take real pride in what they do. With Made to Measure, there is no need to compromise; you can create a unique look with your choice of fabric and those important finishing touches that will complement and co-ordinate your home.

There are four shapes to choose from: Empire, Drum, Pleated, and Candle (always sold as a pair), along with several size options. You can choose a second fabric to line the lampshade; applicable to Drum Lampshades only.
