Chinoiserie Pale Blue Lampshade – Classic Botanical Style | Bowerbird Collections
Made in Australia
Eco friendly inks & natural fibres
Made to order
Elegant, serene, and timeless — the Chinoiserie Pale Blue Lampshade brings a refined botanical presence to any room. Based on Ellie Sweetman’s gouache painting inspired by traditional Chinese art, this design showcases delicate florals and flowing branches across a gentle pale blue backdrop.
The large-scale composition adds impact while maintaining a calming, sophisticated tone. It’s a beautiful choice for bedrooms, living spaces, or entryways that call for grace, history, and softness in equal measure.
Handcrafted in Brisbane using a linen/cotton fabric and printed locally with eco-certified inks, this lampshade casts a soft ambient glow that enhances the artwork’s detail and adds charm to any setting.
