30 Degrees Shade

30 Degrees is a lightweight shade made of laminated oak veneer. The seamless surface is achieved by aligning the ends of semicircular veneer sheets at a 30 Degrees angle, so the inside cone and internal angle is always 30 Degrees. The layering of the conical veneer creates a solid shade that is opaque and characterized by its harmonious woodgrain pattern. Rich in tactility, the series express a natural elegant aesthetic. All shades are sealed with a matt lacquer and supplied with a moulded locator fitting, which levels and supports the shade when suspended. The cord set for the shades is sold separately.
