Painted entirely by hand, it features watchful cats set within scalloped cartouches, surrounded by a rhythmic diamond pattern in warm terracotta red, soft pink, and antique gold tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"952\" data-end=\"1283\"\u003eMore whimsical in spirit than my usual work, this lampshade leans into a naïve, storytelling style — the kind of piece that brings character to a room and invites a second look. The cats feel both companionable and slightly mischievous, echoing the decorative traditions of hand-painted interiors and painted furniture of the past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1285\" data-end=\"1570\"\u003eEach brushstroke is visible, giving the shade a painterly quality and a sense of quiet individuality. When lit, the colours warm and soften, creating a welcoming glow that feels particularly suited to sitting rooms, bedrooms, or any corner that could benefit from a little personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1572\" data-end=\"1727\"\u003eAs with all my lampshades, this is a completely unique piece — an artwork as much as a functional object — designed to be lived with, noticed, and enjoyed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDETAILS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions:\u003cbr\u003eWidth across bottom of shade, 25cm\u003cbr\u003eWidth across top of the shade, 10cm\u003cbr\u003eVertical height to top of lampshade, 15cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCandle lightbulb:\u003cbr\u003eEco Halogen max 28W\u003cbr\u003eor\u003cbr\u003eLED 9W\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Hand-painted on a quality cotton lampshade base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: Original artwork – this is a one off piece, painted by me.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for lovers of decorative interiors, nature-inspired design and artisan craftsmanship, this lampshade makes a unique addition to your hallway, living room, study or bedroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHIPPING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI post all my lampshades in EXTREMELY sturdy boxes that I spent a long time sourcing.  I have not yet had a single shade damaged in transit as a result.  Your shade will come beautifully wrapped in tissue and securely packaged.  I send all my  shades using Royal Mail Tracked 24.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAKING CARE OF YOUR LAMPSHADE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare of your lampshade - I have been painting lampshades for nearly 10 years now, using professional artist's paint which is designed to be lightfast and not fade.  You do not need to treat your lampshade any differently to a normal fabric lampshade - a light dust from time to time is all it will need.  The paint sinks into the fabric fibres, as it would on a canvas, so once dry, it effectively becomes part of the shade and will not chip or flake.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1404\" data-start=\"1337\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Melanie Lewis Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52153597329749,"sku":null,"price":125.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/4961\/2629\/files\/IMG_5703_d6506719-e8e1-4f7b-b647-1e54470323b1.jpg?v=1769083754","url":"https:\/\/melanielewishome.co.uk\/products\/cats-lampshade-hand-painted","provider":"Melanie Lewis Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
