Garlic Coastal Rattan Kitchen Pendant Light

Overview

Suitable rooms

Cluster two 23.6" shades 24"-30" apart above the island.

Two 23.6" pendants spaced 24"-30" apart on center give even task light across a standard island without a dark gap in the middle, and the dense weave still glows for ambient fill after prep work ends. Islands under 5 ft do better with one 31.5" shade centered instead.

• 

  Best sizes: 23.6" x 21.3" · 31.5" x 28.3"

• 

  Bulb: 800-1200 lm, 2700-3000K, dimmable for prep work

Center the 31.5" shade 30"-34" below an 8-9 ft ceiling.

In a living room with 8-9 ft ceilings, the 31.5" shade works as a sculptural centerpiece over a coffee table rather than task light, staying clear of sightlines to the sofa. For ceilings under 8 ft, drop to the 23.6" size so the bottom edge still clears head height.

• 

  Best sizes: 31.5" x 28.3" · 23.6" x 21.3"

• 

  Bulb: 800-1200 lm, 2700-3000K, dimmable for movie nights

Hang the 17.7" shade 20"-26" beside the bed.

In place of a table lamp, the 17.7" shade hung 20"-26" above the nightstand keeps the fixture in scale next to the bed and dims low for late evenings through its dense weave. Skip it on a nightstand under 24" tall, where the shade sits too close to eye level.

  Best sizes: 17.7" x 14.2"

• 

  Bulb: 800-1200 lm, 2700-3000K, dimmable for late reading

How we craft this rattan pendant light

Every product goes through the same six-step process in our Vietnam workshop — from selecting the cane to testing the wiring. See the full process →

• 

  Step 1

  Selecting Bamboo and Rattan Materials are carefully chosen based on age, flexibility, and shape. Ideal bamboo is 5–10 years old, with straight, smooth stems and minimal knots, sourced from Vietnamese mountain regions (avoiding the top and bottom growth areas where light exposure affects quality).

• 

  Step 2

  Splitting and Making Bamboo/Rattan Strips Rattan's outer bark is stripped to reveal its workable core, which is split into uniform strands. Bamboo is similarly split into strips sized according to the final product's requirements, ensuring consistency.

• 

  Step 3

  Anti-Corrosion and Anti-Mold Treatment Two key methods protect against decay and insects: smoking (improves termite resistance and flexibility) and boiling (removes impurities, kills bacteria, and enhances elasticity). Materials are then sun-dried to boost strength and durability.

• 

  Step 4

  Making the Pendant Frame and Assembly This involves four steps — selecting a shape (round, drum, cluster, conical, etc.), precise measurement for stable joints, cutting and assembling components, and quality control testing to confirm the frame can bear the lamp's weight and external stress.

• 

  Step 5

  Weaving of Bamboo/Rattan Pendant Shade Artisans use techniques like woven mesh, embroidery, and twisted weave to create intricate patterns. Weaving starts from key frame points, with continuous checks for uniformity, finishing with detailed borders and accents.

• 

  Step 6

  Final Quality Assurance and Testing Final steps include controlled natural drying plus anti-termite/anti-mold treatment, surface coloring (natural golden hue, eco-friendly stains, or black lacquer for rattan pieces), professional electrical installation and testing, and a comprehensive final quality inspection before shipping.
