Artistic Paper Rope Ceiling Shade

This paper rope shade is woven into a sculpted rather than a cylindrical form, so the outline curves and narrows along its height. That shaping is the difference between a plain drum and something that reads as a made object on the ceiling.

Shaping a woven shade is considerably harder than weaving a straight one, because the tension has to change as the diameter does. It is the reason a formed shade costs more than a drum of the same material.

Velleora Home Decor weaves each shade individually, so form and density vary slightly between pieces. It fits standard pendant fittings without rewiring. Keep paper rope away from damp, use a low-wattage bulb, and dust with a soft brush rather than a cloth.
