{"product_id":"oak-leaves-lampshade-hand-painted","title":"Hand-Painted Oak \u0026 Acorn Lampshade in Deep Blue – Folk Art Inspired","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"642\" data-end=\"827\"\u003ePainted by hand in my Shropshire studio, this lampshade is inspired by traditional folk art and the enduring symbolism of the oak tree — a quiet emblem of home, strength and continuity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"829\" data-end=\"1217\"\u003eThe background is a deep, inky blue, chosen to feel rich and grounding rather than decorative. Across it, stylised acorns and oak leaves are painted in muted shades of sage green and soft taupe, arranged rhythmically in the manner of old folk paintings and early decorative work. The brushstrokes are intentionally visible, giving the piece warmth, character and a distinctly human touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1219\" data-end=\"1484\"\u003eWhen lit, the dark blue surface softens beautifully, creating an intimate pool of light and allowing the earthy tones of the motif to glow gently. It is a lampshade that feels both decorative and calm — designed to sit quietly within a room rather than dominate it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1486\" data-end=\"1636\"\u003eEach lampshade is painted slowly by hand and no two are ever the same. This piece is a small work of art, made to be lived with and enjoyed every day.\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\u003eColour palette: Hague Blue, sage green and shades of taupe.\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":52153555222869,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/4961\/2629\/files\/8_83da7df8-5272-4ad9-9c59-13c5d942a6fc.png?v=1779353057","url":"https:\/\/melanielewishome.co.uk\/products\/oak-leaves-lampshade-hand-painted","provider":"Melanie Lewis Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
