New Release Antique Lamps and Vintage Style Lampshades
Antique lamp and bird motif silk Victorian lampshade with handstrung beads, antique textiles, and lilac cream colorway
Under a canopy of twilight hues, the "Lavender Sky" lamp by Elegance Lamps casts a spell of serene elegance. This enchanting Victorian lampshade paired with an Art Nouveau style table lamp brings together a symphony of lavender and pastel tones, accented by shimmering silver. Each element, from the finely woven silk to the intricate French Passementerie and metallic lace, whispers stories of a bygone opulent era.
As dusk falls, the hand-strung beadwork of Czech crystals and vintage French beads begins to dance, reflecting whispers of light, creating a spectacle of sparkle and grace. The meticulously restored base, painted to complement the shade, ensures that "Lavender Sky" stands as a testament to timeless craftsmanship and beauty.
It stands 19.25 inches tall, a majestic presence in any room it graces.
Handcrafted by Crystal Hayes at the Elegance Lamps studio in Seattle, WA.

Renaissance themed silk Victorian lampshade in maroon with antique laces, silk velvet, and silk tassels
A dark renaissance piece, “Byzantine” by Elegance Lamps is a stunning handmade luxury Victorian lampshade with deep aubergine silk, regal antique laces, and Art Deco lines. A perfect complement to dark décor styling. Ideal for a straight floor lamp with a square base!
The vintage style shade was created with hand-dyed silk, ornate antique metal laces, and authentic antique forest green silk velvet manufactured in the 1920’s. The shade is very dark due to heavy silk layering and therefore, it tolerates well a very bright lightbulb yet still provides a dark glow.
Each of the four panels features a suspended faceted glass cabochon, through which plum-colored light shines when the lamp is lit. Handmade authentic silk tassels drape from four corner points.
