Rattan Wall Sconce – Handwoven Bamboo Shade for Bedroom & Hallway
A wall lamp with a handwoven rattan shade over a bamboo frame. The weaving is the whole character of it: the shade is built from individual strands worked over and under one another, so its surface is a grid of solid material and open gaps rather than a continuous skin. Being handwoven, the tightness of the weave varies a little across every shade.
Those gaps are what make a woven shade behave unlike any solid one. Light escapes through every opening, so the fixture throws a field of small bright points onto the wall and ceiling around it rather than a smooth pool, and that pattern is a direct map of the weave itself. Rattan and bamboo are both light, which suits a wall fixture, but neither takes moisture well, so a bathroom is the wrong room for it.
It suits a bedroom, a hallway or a landing, mounted on a plain wall where the cast pattern has somewhere to land. Against a busy wallpaper the woven shadow is lost completely.

Solid Material And Open Gaps
The shade is built from individual strands worked over and under one another, so its surface is a grid of solid material and open gaps rather than a continuous skin. Being handwoven, the tightness of that weave varies a little across every shade.
A Map Of The Weave
Light escapes through every opening, so the fixture throws a field of small bright points onto the wall and ceiling around it rather than a smooth pool. That pattern is a direct map of the weave itself.
Keep It Away From Damp
Rattan and bamboo are both light, which suits a wall fixture, but neither takes moisture well. A bathroom is the wrong room for it, and a plain wall elsewhere is what gives the cast pattern somewhere to land.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it cast on the wall?
A field of small bright points rather than a smooth pool. Light escapes through every opening in the weave, so what lands around the fixture is effectively a map of how it was made.
Can it go in a bathroom?
No. Neither rattan nor bamboo takes moisture well, so a room with a shower or a bath in it is the wrong place for this shade regardless of how well it suits the decor.
Will every shade be the same?
Not exactly. Because the strands are worked by hand, the tightness of the weave varies a little between shades, and that carries through into the pattern each one casts.
What wall does it need?
A plain one, so the cast pattern has somewhere to land. Against a busy wallpaper the woven shadow is lost completely and the fixture gives up the thing that distinguishes it.
Where does it suit?
A bedroom, a hallway or a landing. Somewhere dry, in other words, with a plain surface behind it for the pattern of the weave to be thrown onto.
