40cm straight empire shade in red house Borage block printed card by Morris & Co.

William Morris, a close friend of master engraver Emery Walker, crafted the lively 'Borage' floral pattern in 1883, drawing inspiration from nature. Beloved by bees, this pattern is a lively, spirited floral design with multiple axes of symmetry, creating a captivating focal point in any room. We've carefully block printed 'Borage' onto lampshades, capturing Morris' original technique's timeless charm and unique variations, as once seen in Walker's Hammersmith home-a beautiful blend of history and craftsmanship.
