Wholesale The Explorer’s Garden Gorse & Fern Lampshade

Gorse is part of the Cornish landscape all year round, bright against the cliffs, slightly untamed, always moving in the wind. Paired here with curling fern fronds, it feels rooted and quietly dramatic. This design was drawn for us by Heidi Ball, who has been illustrating for Cream Cornwall since 2012. She sketches every branch, fern, butterfly and tiny insect by hand in pen. We then shape the layout together and build the blue tones ourselves, letting the softer shades deepen into richer shadows. Subtle touches of yellow and colour in the insects lift the design gently. Each shade is made by us in our in house lampshade studio in Penryn. To help you decide which size shade to pair with your lamp base, we've filmed a video with our own tips which you can watch here.
