Bring colour, conversation and character into your home with the Chai Stories drum shade. Elegantly dressed women share cups of tea against a deep teal and navy botanical ground — an expressive design that celebrates the warmth, connection and everyday ritual of gathering over chai. Coral pinks, rich blues, leafy greens, purple detail and golden accents make a bold yet sophisticated palette that reads as a statement piece lit or unlit. The compact 13-inch diameter and 8-inch height suit a compatible floor-lamp or table-lamp base — beside a reading chair, in a tea corner, next to a console, anywhere a space needs an unexpected art-led accent. Collapsible by design: detachable upper and lower rings and a rollable panel that assembles without tools, comes apart for travel and stores flat, so you can change your shade whenever you refresh your décor. Rooted in India, made for modern homes.
