Kiwi Empire Candle Shade – Handmade in Devon
Bring classic style and green colour to your lighting with our Kiwi Empire Candle Shade. Each shade is handmade in our Devon workshop using Kiwi brushed cotton.
The traditional empire shape creates an elegant, tapered silhouette. Meanwhile, the fabric’s soft texture and matt finish complement both classic and contemporary interiors.
Use this compact shade on compatible chandeliers or wall lights to add colour and character. Each shade is handmade to order with care and attention to detail.
Choose Your Kiwi Empire Candle Shade Lining
Personalise your lampshade with a choice of interior finishes:
- White PVC – A bright, reflective interior for practical lighting.
- Natural Cotton – A softer, diffused lighting effect.
- Gold – A rich metallic finish.
- Silver – A cooler metallic finish.
- Champagne – A subtle metallic tone.
- Copper – A warm metallic finish.
Metallic linings are fully opaque, so light does not pass through the sides of the shade. Instead, light reflects internally and escapes through the top and bottom openings. As a result, these linings create a more focused, atmospheric lighting effect.
Your bulb also affects the final tone. For example, warm white and cool white bulbs produce different lighting effects.
Kiwi Empire Candle Shade Size
Our Kiwi Empire Candle Shade is available in one size: 5.5 inches.
- Base diameter: 14cm

These compact proportions suit decorative lighting where a smaller shade is needed.
