Boho Rattan Wall Lamp | Handwoven Shade Bedside and Living Room Sconce In Black Polished Metal

Woven rattan over a light source does something a solid shade cannot. Light escapes through the gaps in the weave as well as out of the open end, so the fitting throws a pattern of light and shadow onto the wall around it instead of a single defined pool. That patterned glow is the entire reason woven shades keep returning to every good interior, decade after decade.

Setting that weave on a polished black metal frame is what stops it reading as purely rustic. The contrast between a hard graphic frame and a soft natural shade is what makes the piece work in a modern room as well as a coastal or farmhouse one, and the adjustable arm means the drop can be set to the wall rather than accepted.

Buy it now for a bedside, a hallway or a reading corner. The shade is fifteen centimetres across and fifteen high, it takes an E27 bulb which is not included, and it runs at one hundred and ten to two hundred and forty volts. Keep it out of damp rooms, since rattan is a natural fibre and prolonged humidity weakens a weave. This is a hardwired fixture and should be fitted by a qualified electrician.
