Aaargh, Maties! Whether you are about to sing “Sixteen Men on a Dead Man’s Chest,” or “Octopus’s Garden,” nautical lampshades will help set the tone. Perfect for an oceanside room theme or even one that has to do with boating or fantasy worlds that involve merfolk, selkies and world-encircling sea serpents, these nautical lampshades will blend in well with your general décor. While maintaining a single theme, they range from rollicking jolly good tar themes to the understated elegance that might bring visions of the Titanic and her sister ships. Even if your home is completely landlocked, you can enjoy the ambiance of the ocean with these beautiful or quaint shades.

Anchors Away Baby or Child Lamp Shade
This pretty lamp shade is a standard small conical shade. It is banded in navy blue around the bottom and the top of the shade and has a stylized anchor on its side. Perfect for the youngster who has a mom or dad in the Navy, or for an ocean-going nursery rhyme theme that focuses on verses such as Owl and the Pussycat, Pretty Bobby Shafto, or Rubadubdub Three Men in a Tub. The crisp, white shade can easily transition from a nursery theme to a bedroom for an older child.

Nautical Explorer
If your child thrives on tales of sailing ships and ancient explorers, this is a perfect lampshade for your young person’s room. Still keeping that navy-blue trim theme found in Anchors Away, this one depicts a line drawing in Navy blue of clipper ships in full sail accompanied by seagulls. It could even go with a Jonathan Livingston Seagull theme. It could even entrance a child who is fond of the classics, such as Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
- Found on the Beach
This is perfect for anyone, young or old, who loves to walk along the beach picking up driftwood or shells. This fabric lamp shade is printed with seashells, a seahorse, branches of coral and seaweed along with other things you might expect to find washed up from the ocean. The youngster who loves to weep over the seaside scene in Little Women or the older reader who likes stories about chopping turf, digging clams and generally living at the ocean’s edge will be enchanted with this graceful depiction of the things that can be found at the ocean’s edge.
- Yo-Ho-Ho, Skeleton Chest
Be sure to put your copy of Treasure Island next to this lamp! The lamp base is cast resin molded to look like a decaying tree trunk behind a pirate chest, with the skeletal remains of the pirate – wearing his obligatory skull and crossbones tricorn hat – seated atop the chest. The shade is an ornate treasure map, complete with a compass rose and giant X to mark the spot.
