Handwoven Bamboo Lamp Shade for Ceiling or Table Lighting

A wide handwoven bamboo lamp shade with a flared lower rim and a raised cylindrical centre, made using thin split bamboo strips in a criss-cross pattern. The open lattice lets light pass through softly, while the tighter weave around the top gives the shade its shape and strength. Its natural bamboo colour works well with warm bulbs and simple interior settings.

Woven Bamboo Form

The shade has a broad circular base that spreads outward like a shallow hat, with an open top section for fitting over a bulb holder or lamp frame. The visible hand-plaited pattern gives it a clean, natural look without heavy polishing or artificial colouring.

Natural Material and Finish

• Made primarily from bamboo strips
• Light beige natural finish
• Open-weave lower section for patterned light spread
• Denser basket-style weave around the centre body
• Rounded bamboo edging helps the shade hold its form

Where It Works Best

This bamboo lamp shade suits spaces where a soft, warm light is preferred rather than harsh direct brightness. It can be used for:

• Pendant lighting over a dining corner
• Bedside or floor lamp projects
• Café, homestay, resort, or boutique décor
• Balcony, sit-out, and covered indoor areas
• Natural, rustic, boho, or handmade-themed interiors

Practical Lighting Use

The open weave reduces visual heaviness and allows air to move around the bulb area. For best results, pair it with an LED bulb, as LED bulbs produce less heat than older incandescent bulbs. The shade is best used with a compatible holder or lamp fitting installed by an electrician.

Handmade Character

Small changes in strip width, weave spacing, and rim alignment are normal in bamboo work. These are not defects; they are part of the handwoven construction and make each piece slightly different from the next.

Estimated Size

Approximate dimensions are 45 cm diameter and 25 cm height. The lamp shade is lightweight enough for ceiling suspension when fitted with suitable hardware.

Care Instructions

• Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth or a small brush, working gently between the open bamboo weave.
• Keep away from rain, steam, and damp walls, as moisture can cause bamboo strips to swell, loosen, or develop marks.
• Use with an LED bulb and avoid high-heat incandescent bulbs to help protect the natural weave and rim binding.
• Do not wash, soak, or use harsh cleaners. For small spots, wipe lightly with a barely damp cloth and let it air dry fully before use.
• Handle by the thicker centre body or rim rather than pulling on the open lattice strips.
