Lush Designs – Lampshade For Lamp Base – Dawn Chorus – Blue – Large

Description:

The Dawn Chorus Lampshade in Blue, Bronze and Black by Lush Designs is a large and visually striking decorative shade featuring an original screen-print on parchment. The design presents a richly layered woodland scene filled with stylised birds, flowering plants, foliage and branching trees, forming a continuous panoramic composition around the full circumference of the shade.

A number of distinctive birds appear throughout the scene, each rendered with its own posture, plumage and expression. Some perch among the branches, while others stand within the dense woodland growth, evoking the activity and birdsong of the early morning. Their varied forms give the design a strong narrative quality and ensure that it remains engaging from every viewpoint.

The surrounding botanical detail is equally elaborate. Tall flower heads, broad leaves, delicate stems and patterned foliage rise through a network of tree trunks and branches. The blue, bronze and black colourway gives the design a bold yet sophisticated appearance. Blue defines much of the woodland, plumage and foliage, bronze introduces warmth and contrast, and black creates depth and structure across the composition.

The illustration continues around the entire circumference rather than relying upon a single repeated motif. As the shade is turned, different birds, plants and woodland details are revealed, giving the design the character of a complete decorative panorama. Close inspection reveals finely worked feathers, dotted leaves, linear bark patterns and intricate botanical forms.

Black binding at the upper and lower edges gives the shade a crisp and coordinated finish. Screen-printed on parchment, it is designed to diffuse light while retaining the clarity of its decoration. When illuminated, the lighter areas produce a warm atmospheric glow, while the more densely printed sections remain strongly defined.

Measuring approximately 35 cm high and 43 cm in diameter, this is a substantial lampshade with considerable decorative presence. It is suitable for an appropriately proportioned large table-lamp base or standard lamp, subject to checking the fitting and overall scale. Its bold design is particularly well suited to contemporary, eclectic and maximalist interiors, as well as rooms with botanical, woodland or bird-inspired decoration.

The accompanying photographs show the lampshade from different angles and demonstrate the continuation of the Dawn Chorus design around its circumference.

The price is for the lampshade only. A lamp base and bulb are not included.
