Step into a world of timeless beauty and artistic inspiration with an "Acanthus - Autumn" lampshade.

The warm, earthy tones of this beautiful design tell the story of a forest ablaze with the colours of autumn.

This exquisite fabric design by the iconic William Morris captures the essence of the changing seasons, infusing your space with warmth, elegance, and the rich heritage of the Arts and Crafts movement. 

  • The pattern, with its intricately detailed acanthus leaves and swirling vines, evokes a sense of natural splendour and artistic integrity. It's a piece of heritage that transcends time.

  • Please refer to the size charts in the photos to choose the dimensions for your lampshade.

    There are two styles to choose from: 8 sizes of tapered shades and 10 sizes of straight sided or drum-style shades. They are all numbered for ease of ordering. For example 'Straight sided 15'

    This pattern is best suited to straight sided, drum-style shades as the birds will 'bend' and appear slightly tipsy when used on a tapered shape frame.

    Also, please note that because of the standard width and horizontal design of this fabric it is unsuitable for lampshades that have a diametre larger than 35.5 cm (unless you would like 2 seams, which I don't recommend).

    Use the drop down menus to make your choice - see below.

    To order a lampshade in this fabric:

    In the 1st drop down menu select the style and shape of lampshade - all dimensions are illustrated in the photos.

    Ceiling lights are best chosen from the straight sided options and most of the tapered shades are only suitable for table or floor stands and are not available for ceiling pendants.

    In the 2nd drop down menu select whether your lampshade is for a table lamp / floor stand, or to be hung from the ceiling. A guide can be found in the photos.

    In the 3rd drop down menu select the ring size of the shade frame.

    The options are either bayonet bulb fitting or screw bulb fitting. (See photo).

    The light shade frame is manufactured to fit screw fit bulbs (E27 & E14) or, a converter (reducer) adaptor is added to reduce the hole so it can fit bayonet bulbs (B22). 

    If in doubt, select bayonet bulb fitting as this will come with the flexible adaptor which can be flipped out to make the bulb holder larger if needed.   More information.

    • A LED bulb is recommended.
    • Each lampshade has a fire retardant inner made from white styrene.
