Handpainted Acacia Lampshade
Acacia - the essence of Africa.
This shade captures the classic vista of the African Savanna. There is a band of colour along the bottom, using rich colours of brown, rust, orange, yellow, gold and white, blended together, with brush strokes moving upwards around the band, capturing the grassland look. There are 2 Acacia Trees on the shade, 1 on each size. The leaves are painted in shades of green, algae, gold and white.
The Acacia Lampshade can bring a bit of Africa into your home. Its a great way to bring back memories of past holidays. The tones of this lampshade can work beautifully with brown / bronze colours lamp bases, pottery, brass, or wooden.
The Acacia design is handpainted onto a Coolie or Cylinder lampshade - ideal for a table lamp, floor lamp, or ceiling light.
NOTE: as each lampshade is individually handpainted, there may be variations in colour and design.
NOTE: All my designs can be modified to suit your home, and your colour scheme. Just send me an email or give me a call, and we can discuss options. For example, for this design - for 1 customer, I only painted the trees, and for another customer I used more turquoise and grey tones to match with their home decor.
