Twisted Petals Suspended Lamp Shade

A sculptural suspended lamp shade inspired by layered flower petals and flowing organic curves. This design wraps around the light source in a smooth spiral arrangement, creating a soft floral silhouette that feels both modern and slightly futuristic. Perfect for home decor, interior styling, ambient lighting setups, and design-focused print projects. 📏 Measuring Instructions This model is designed as a decor lighting shade, so sizing should be based on your lamp hardware and the space where it will hang.
