Matara Woven Wicker Rattan Pendant Light

Overview

Suitable rooms

Center the 31.5" shade 30-36" above the tabletop.

The wide dome spreads its radial shadow pattern evenly across a large table without glaring into seated eye lines. Tables over 6 ft look better with two fixtures spaced apart. Smaller 19.7" shades suit a bistro-style table instead of a full dining set.

• 

  Best sizes: 23.6" · 31.5" · 39.4"

• 

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

Hang the 39.4" shade with the bottom 7-7.5 ft from the floor.

Under an 8-9 ft ceiling, the largest dome becomes a sculptural centerpiece over a coffee table, its horizontal spread balancing a low sofa arrangement. Its wide flat form throws spoke shadows across the wall behind it. In rooms with lower ceilings, drop to the 31.5" size instead.

• 

  Best sizes: 31.5" · 39.4"

• 

  Bulb: 800-1200 lm, 2700-3000K, dimmable ambient glow

Space fixtures 24"-30" apart, centered 30-36" above the counter.

Cluster two or three of the 19.7" size along an island over 6 ft to keep even coverage over the work surface without one oversized shade crowding the sightline. The compact dome keeps clearance above head height at the counter. A single 23.6" works for a shorter island instead.

• 

  Best sizes: 19.7" · 23.6"

• 

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

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.
