Welcome to Gloria Lombard Designs! My lamp shades are inspired by European designs from England, France, and Italy. Most of my shades are made from vintage or antique textiles. I have had a love affair with fabric, ribbon and lace most of my life. My pillows are also made from vintage and antique fabric and trims. Pillow inserts are feather/down and closures are zippers or buttons. Most of my pillows and lamp shades are made from natural fibers, silk, cotton, linen, and sometimes wool. The grosgrain ribbon trim on my shades is made in France from a cotton blend which work best when making lamp shades. I also offer an ever changing variety of vintage and antique textiles and small antiques and collectibles. Many of my handmade lampshades and pillows are literally "one of a kind" [sometimes there may be two or three of them] so if you see something you like, don't wait to order it. Once it's gone, it's gone for good. I hope you enjoy my website and will visit again. E-mail me with any questions or special requests you may have. I love to receive questions about my designs.
