ILLUMINATED NATURE

A Fusion of Artisanal Craftmanship and Botanical Beauty

Introducing an exclusive collection of nature inspired ombré lampshades in collaboration with Natural Dye House, Laikstyle.

Creating a unique and eco-friendly lighting solution that brings nature into your home.

Alice and Carole are pleased to present their first joint lighting collection, showcasing a wonderful range of nature’s colour palette. Each lampshade is hand pleated in organic dip dyed silks, braids and fringing, using a range of botanical dyes to achieve a beautiful ombré effect perfect for lighting.

“Each lampshade silk is hand dipped using a range of natural dyes including privet leaves, yew twigs, birch bark and nettle leaves, along with classic botanical dyes of Madder root and natural Indigo. Time is spent dip-dyeing the colours to create an ombré effect, all of which is enriched by Alice’s hand pleated lampshade design” – Carole, Laikstyle

Colourways in Rose, Pistachio, Lemon, Orange Blossom, Blueberry and Coffee.

“I’m so pleased to be working alongside Carole on this new lighting collection. We have made sure to use only the best organic and sustainable materials possible from the thread through to the organic cotton braiding which Carole has also dipped to match the silks. I’m amazed at the staggering clarity of colour that can be achieved with these natural ingredients. The silks are a joy to pleat with and it’s very satisfying to see them take shape into a beautiful and functional lighting design for the home.” – Alice, Beauvamp
