Lottie Cole - Minerva Workshop

Minerva Workshop re-imagines the craft of lampshade making through a beautifully curated range of textiles and hand-crafted homeware ideal for makers, makers-to-be and stylish interiors alike. Based in West Sussex and previously in London, Minerva Workshop offers richly textured lampshades that fuse creative design with artisan skill — each shade is made in small batches, by hand, and thoughtfully finished for durability and elegance.

Founded by designer-maker Lottie Cole, the work is shaped by an appreciation of material and form. Each lampshade is constructed using high-quality natural cottons or linens, carefully sewn and assembled to ensure a refined finish. With features such as gathered or pleated designs, soft neutral palettes or bolder print accents, the collection stands out for its professional aesthetics tailored for both studio and living spaces.
