Traditional Bamboo Sphere Pendant

A woven bamboo shade in a true sphere, offered in three sizes where the height always matches the width. Keeping those dimensions equal is what makes it a sphere rather than a dome or a barrel, and it means the fitting reads identically from every angle with no back to hide.

Three sizes cover very different jobs. At 35 cm it works over a bedside, a hallway or a breakfast bar, and a group of three at staggered heights is how it looks best at that scale. At 45 cm it is the everyday choice over a dining table or a kitchen island. At 60 cm it has real presence and becomes the focal point of a living room or a large dining space. In every size the weave lets light out in all directions, so the sphere glows as an object and the woven pattern lands on the ceiling and the walls as well as the surface below.

Suitable for indoor use in living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens and bedrooms. Bamboo is a natural material, so colour, grain and weave vary between pieces and no two shades are identical. Bulb is not included; use a bulb that runs cool, keep it clear of the weave and do not fit a high-wattage bulb. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician.
