For an innovative re-imagining of a period lampshade, look no further than Roost Living's Hand Knitted Lightshade.
Created by artist Rory Dobner, the lampshades are knitted on vintage metal frames, so no two are the same. Using grey cotton yarn, the cable stitch creates a soft texture and attractive twisting border to the shade. This in turn means that light is softly filtered and diffused to give a gentle effect.
The shades cost £120 each and you can buy them exclusively from Roost Living.
