Description

This brand new lampshade has an insulating interior made with Blue Water Dreaming by Anita Nakamarra Gibson, a Warlukurlangu Artist. Story: The site depicted in this painting is Puyurru, west of Yuendumu. in the usually dry creek beds are 'mulju' (soakages), or naturally occurring wells. The 'kirda' (owners) for this site are Nangala/Nampijinpa women & Jangala/Jampijinpa men. Two Jangala men, rainmakers, sang the rain, unleashing a giant storm. The storm travelled across the country from the east to the west, initially travelling with a ' pamapardu Jukurrpa' (termite Dreaming) from Warntungurru to Warlura, a waterhole 8 miles east of Yuendumu. At Warlura, a gecko called Yumariyumari blew the storm onto Lapurrukurra & Wilpiri. Bolts of lightning shot out to Wirnpa (also called-Mardinymardininypa) & at Kanaralji. At this point, the Dreaming track also includes the 'kurdukurdu mangkurdu Jukurrpa' (children of the clouds Dreaming). The water Dreaming built hills at Ngamangama using baby clouds & also stuck long pointy clouds into the ground at Jukajuka, where they can still be seen today as rock formations. (Spotlight) This modern yet versatile drum shape is perfect for bringing back life to your table lamps, floor lamps or even your ceiling pendant light! By purchasing this lampshade you know that you'll have a unique statement piece that is truly Australian!

IMPORTANT: These shades will fit a Euro lamp or pendant light fitting e.g. an E27 sized light bulb. These are most common in pendant lamps, floor lamps & most table lamps. A reducer ring is also provided for smaller fittings e.g. B22, most common in smaller table lamps. If you are after a US washer/Spider fitting, please send me a message. For safety, it's best to use a low watt such as a 15watt bulb & not have the lamp on for more than 5 hours at a time. LED globes are cooler & always recommended. Please note that it is the lampshade only. As these are all handcrafted with no machines involved, please allow for some perfect imperfections. Fabric placing may differ between different Lampshades.
