Double-Sided Suede-Effect Microfibre & Toile de Jouy Lampshade | 5 Colours | 2 Tapered Shapes | Handmade in Italy
Handmade in Italy, this elegant double-sided Toile de Jouy lampshade combines a refined suede-effect microfibre exterior with a coordinated interior in the renowned French Toile de Jouy textile tradition. It is a distinctive decorative lampshade for a table lamp, bringing together French country style and careful Italian craftsmanship.
Toile de Jouy is a renowned French decorative fabric, celebrated for its delicate illustrated scenes, fine linework and timeless character. Its scenic, narrative pattern gives each lampshade a sophisticated decorative identity, making it an elegant choice for French country interiors, classic homes, romantic bedrooms, refined living rooms and considered interior-design schemes.
The outer covering is made from elegant suede-effect microfibre, chosen for its soft-looking texture, subtle matte finish and sophisticated depth of colour. The contrast between the contemporary elegance of the microfibre exterior and the historic character of the French Toile de Jouy interior makes this a versatile statement lampshade for both classic and modern interiors.
Each handmade lampshade is made to order in Italy and carefully finished by hand.
Available exterior colours:
- Black

Each colour is paired with a coordinating Toile de Jouy interior. The pattern and tonal variations may differ slightly from one piece to another, making every lampshade unique.

The tapered shape of the lampshade and the carefully calculated fitter recess (also called fitter drop)—the distance between the shade’s top diameter/top edge and the centre of the central lamp-holder/fitter ring—are designed so that, once mounted, the lampshade structure covers and conceals the lamp holder/socket from view. Please refer to the attached Image A for a precise visual reference.
Made to order: please allow 5–7 business days for preparation before dispatch. The listing is for the lampshade only. Lamp base, bulb and electrical fitting are not included. Please check compatibility with your lamp base and fitting before ordering.
Care: dust gently with a soft, dry cloth. Because this is a handmade item, slight variations in the fabric, pattern placement and finish are part of its character.
