Made to Measure Plum Lampshades

Made to Measure Lampshades

Do you have any plum coloured fabrics for lampshades?

Yes we do! Proud and regal or soft and sweet, plum fabrics range from vibrant violet to pale lavender. Whether you blanket a whole room with the colour or just use it as an accent, this mystical hue is bound to make a statement.

Plum purple fabric offers a spirited mood. However, to add a more youthful feel, mix plum purple curtains with other colours, such as grey, green, pink, and white.

Our Plum fabrics are a soft aubergine; a warm shade of purple that pays homage to red and purple, with a touch of yellow.

This Plum shade paired with a mossy green is common in French and shabby chic decors.

The Plum fabric range can be found in the Orchard Collection, where Vanessa has combined it with Kale green in several coordinating designs. You can buy our fabrics in 10cm increments, starting at 50cm, and make your own lampshade. Alternatively, you can use our Made to Measure service and we will make one, especially for you.

What colours go well with plum lampshade fabrics?

Several shades of green, especially Kale, look great with plum. Kale green is as earthy as it gets! See the Fruit Garden and May Blossom designs, which major on the Plum colour with an accent of Kale green.

Any of the greens, from Sepals and Petals, to Simple Ticking Detail in Kale, will contrast well with the Plum fabrics making stunning lampshades.

A touch of Charcoal or Dove grey also coordinates well and grounds the colour scheme in a room. Three colours always makes the room look less contrived, so use this as a rule of thumb. See the Plain Linen Union in Charcoal and Dove in particular for inspiration.

Each bespoke lampshade is beautifully made in our local workshops by professionals, and hand finished with great care and attention. Our makers use traditional methods and take real pride in what they do. With Made to Measure, there is no need to compromise; you can create a unique look with your choice of fabric and those important finishing touches that will complement and co-ordinate your home.

There are four shapes to choose from: empire, drum, pleated, and candle (always sold as a pair), along with several size options. You can choose a second fabric to line the lampshade; applicable to drum lampshades only.
