About the Item

A larger variation of lampshades designed by German-born, California-based textile artist Maria Kipp, celebrated for her masterful use of handwoven fibers in postwar interiors. This piece exemplifies her signature blend of organic texture and modernist geometry, woven from natural raffia, flax, jute, and metallic threads in a larger than normal size. Kipp’s textiles were prominently featured in interiors by modernist icons including Paul László, Richard Neutra, and Rudolph Schindler, and her work was widely used in high-end commercial and residential projects throughout mid-century Southern California. *Note, this listing is for the shade only, no lamp is included. However we have many vintage table and floor lamps in stock, contact us if you are interested in pairing a lamp with this shade. Bold and earthy, this large size Maria Kipp lampshade is woven in a dynamic palette of black, sienna brown, and vibrant burnt orange, one of the more visually dramatic colorways in her oeuvre. The pronounced horizontal striping, accented by dense threadwork and finely spaced raffia reeds, creates a rhythmic tension between rustic materials and refined geometry. Ideal for adding a pop of mid-century color to neutral interiors, this piece is especially well-suited to Southwest modern or vintage eclectic spaces. Highly collectible and increasingly scarce, Kipp’s lampshades (especially larger examples such as this one) offer a sculptural, light-filtering accent ideal for collectors, designers, and enthusiasts of mid-century and California modern design. The blend of earthy, natural materials and refined, architectural patterning gives these shades a timeless versatility, equally at home in desert modern, Scandinavian, Japandi, or wabi-sabi spaces. Whether used on a vintage lamp base or incorporated into a custom lighting installation, this shade brings warmth, history, and handcrafted beauty to any room. MEASUREMENTS: H 19" x W 17" x D 17" CONDITION: Good vintage condition with minor wear and blemishes including minor losses to wooden tips / ends (see photos). An attractive example that is ready for immediate use.
