Checkmate.

Our Damson blue checkered drum shade is the perfect balance of bold and refined. From the outside, it’s all elegance... a rich, saturated damson blue that brings depth and calm to your space. But look underneath and you’ll discover a playful touch... a marshmallow-toned checkerboard lining that’s quietly on-trend and completely captivating.

Handcrafted by historic English shade makers, this piece blends timeless craftsmanship with the most-wanted design detail of SS25. Checkerboard interiors are everywhere this season, and here it’s paired with a rich, moody blue that feels modern, versatile and full of personality.

The translucent canvas softly filters light to create a mellow ambient glow, subtly bouncing pattern and colour across your room. It’s a shade that adds polish, texture and a little bit of surprise... lighting that does more than just light.

Hand-made.

This 35cm drum shade is made to impress, in construction and in style. Crafted from 100% high quality cotton canvas with a sturdy steel frame, it’s a long-lasting, high-value piece that looks as premium as it feels, a "must-have" addition to any designer space.

The reversible gimbal fitting allows it to sit beautifully on both ceiling lights and table or floor lamps, while the checkerboard lining brings a subtle visual lift from unexpected angles. It’s an effortless way to incorporate one of this season’s biggest interiors trends, without overwhelming your space.

Made from natural, locally sourced fabrics, it’s a conscious choice for any design-led home. Stylish, sustainable and refreshingly different... this is a lighting upgrade with hidden depths.
