Handmade Linen French Drum Empire Lampshades | ByPoppyUK

Quietly elegant and endlessly versatile, our linen French drum lampshades are handmade to order in our Worcestershire studio.

The French drum silhouette — slightly tapered with a gently angled side — softens the clean lines of a classic drum shade, giving it a more relaxed, organic character. Paired with natural linen, the result is a shade that feels considered and calm; the kind of piece that looks like it has always belonged in the room.

Linen’s open weave allows light to filter through gently, casting a warm, diffused glow that flatters any space. Whether hung above a dining table, in a bedroom, or as a statement in a hallway, these shades bring texture and warmth without overpowering.

Each shade is handmade to order and available in a range of sizes to suit your space.
