Siouxsie Lampshade with Fringing - Extra Large (22")
By Anna Hayman
Located in Ringmer, GB
Siouxsie, named after the legend Siouxsie Sioux, is our punky print with a distinct rebellious streak. It was created by layering two of Anna’s designs up together (Pearl and Giraffe) and comes together in dark shades of petrol with highlights of gold, pink and yellow.
Anna Hayman lampshades create a fantastic centrepiece to a room and work as well on a lamp base as they do as pendants, especially now we are able to offer gold linings. Treat yourself to a beautiful piece of artistry, all made in the UK.
Every piece is handmade to order and takes 5-7 weeks to be made and delivered. A piece for your interior to treasure and delight in, these emit a soft glow which lights up a room so beautifully.
The Duchess satin lets more light through than the velvet, as does the white lining rather than the gold. You can use a higher wattage/lumen strength bulb if you’d like the heavier velvet fabric.
The dimensions are below – please bear in mind fringe colour/length is able to be altered easily as is the braid trim. Do email us for alternative options.
Frame Diameter: 22"
Frame Height: 12"
Fringe Length: 8"

Antique, New and Vintage Floor Lamps
The modern floor lamp is an evolution of torchères — tall floor candelabras that originated in France as a revolutionary development in lighting homes toward the end of the 17th century. Owing to the advent of electricity and the introduction of new materials as a part of lighting design, floor lamps have taken on new forms and configurations over the years.
In the early 1920s, Art Deco lighting artisans worked with dark woods and modern metals, introducing unique designs that still inspire the look of modern floor lamps developed by contemporary firms such as Luxxu.
Popular mid-century floor lamps include everything from the enchanting fixtures by the Italian lighting artisans at Stilnovo to the distinctly functional Grasshopper floor lamp created by Scandinavian design pioneer Greta Magnusson-Grossman to the Paracarro floor lamp by the Venetian master glass workers at Mazzega. Among the more celebrated names in mid-century lighting design are Milanese innovators Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, who, along with their eldest brother, Livio, worked for their own firm as architects and designers. While Livio departed the practice in 1952, Achille and Pier Giacomo would go on to design the Arco floor lamp, the Toio floor lamp and more for legendary lighting brands such as FLOS.
Today’s upscale interiors frequently integrate the otherworldly custom lighting solutions created by a wealth of contemporary firms and designers such as Spain’s Masquespacio, whose Wink floor lamps integrate gold as well as fabric fringes.
Visual artists and industrial designers have a penchant for floor lamps, possibly because they’re so often a clever marriage of design and the functions of lighting. A good floor lamp can change the mood of any room while adding a touch of elegance to your entire space. Find yours now on 1stDibs.
