Please note: This is the 'mini' version of the Strawberry Thief design. The pattern is best suited to straight-sided, drum-style shades — the birds will appear slightly distorted on tapered frames. Also, due to the standard fabric width and horizontal design, this fabric is not suitable for lampshades with a diameter larger than 35.5 cm (unless you'd like 2 seams — I place the 2nd seam directly opposite the standard seam; it looks like a good match when unlit, but the seams do cast a shadow when the light is on).
I also stock this design in Mini Marine.
Please refer to the size charts in the photos to choose the dimensions for your lampshade. Choose from 13 straight-sided styles (including barrel and drum options) and 9 tapered styles. All sizes are numbered for easy selection — for example, 'Tapered 15'. Use the drop down menus to make your choice.
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). Have a look at your lamp base or ceiling fitting and check if it takes a bayonet or screw fit bulb. This will guide your decision.
If in doubt, select bayonet bulb fitting as this will come with a standard flexible adaptor which can be flipped out to make the bulb holder larger if needed. More information.
