One shade. Two moods. 💡
The fabric you choose changes more than the look of your lampshade. It also shapes how light fills your space.
🤍 Light fabrics generally let more light pass through the sides, creating a soft, diffused glow.
🖤 Dark fabrics generally let less light through, making the light from the top and bottom openings more noticeable and creating richer contrast.
The weave, thickness and inner lining also influence the result — colour is only part of the story.
At Abajur Handmade, we help you choose a fabric that suits both your space and the atmosphere you want to create.
Which would you choose: light or dark?
Illustrative comparison. The effect varies with fabric and lining.
