Nadia came alive by uniting hand dyed, silk ribbon from the Ukraine with a carefully restored and wired brass oil lamp. I worked the red and green ombre ribbon into an art nouveau motif of flowers and made it the the focal center on my hand-stitched, silk shade.
The 16 panels on the shade's frame had presented a real challenge, taking weeks of trial, error, and determined effort to achieve the desired effect. Pairing this unique shade with an authentic, brass oil lamp made her complete!
