Overview

The Wabi Sabi Modern Teardrop Pendant is a handcrafted pendant light made to order by Vietnamese artisans in Phu Vinh craft village. Its high density polyethylene construction introduces an organic, sculpted presence to interior settings, softening direct bulb output into an inviting wash of diffused illumination and rich textural character across your room.

  • Shade and material: Constructed with high density polyethylene in a white matte / red-brown matte finish, featuring ribbed teardrop shell framing an inner diffusing orb, crafted with meticulous shaping and structural detailing across each made-to-order fixture.
  • Shadow and light effect: The ribbed teardrop shell framing an inner diffusing orb concentrates functional task illumination downward while letting a warm ambient glow wash gently across the surrounding ceiling.
  • Dimensions: Measures 13 inches in diameter by 19.7 inches high, anchored by a 4.7-inch ceiling canopy and carrying an approximate fixture weight of approximately 7-11 pounds.
  • Installation and mounting: Equipped with a 1.5-meter adjustable suspension cord that offers an adjustable drop range between 20 and 59 inches, translating to an overall fixture drop between 39.7 and 78.7 inches, giving you the flexibility to customize hanging height on flat or sloped ceilings using hardwired electrical wiring, plug-in swag hanging, or lampshade-only mounting for your existing hardware.
  • Socket and bulb compatibility: Outfitted with one pre-wired E26/E27 standard base socket supporting up to 60W each, working with both incandescent and energy-efficient LED bulbs while dimming smoothly when you pair them with compatible dimmable bulbs and a wall dimmer switch, though bulbs are sold separately.
  • Certification and warranty: Protected by our catalog-wide 2-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects, alongside official safety certifications including UL Listed (US), cULus Approved (US/CA), and CE Certified (EU) for indoor dry locations.
  • Room and style fit: A compelling statement above dining rooms, kitchen islands, and living rooms, this modern wabi sabi pendant light balances organic contours with precise craftsmanship. The honed architectural core gently illuminates bedrooms, entryways, hallways, and stairwells with glare-free light, bridging wabi-sabi, Japandi, and organic modern aesthetics.

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 →

  • Selecting Bamboo and Rattan

    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).

  • Splitting and Making Bamboo/Rattan Strips

    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.

  • Anti-Corrosion and Anti-Mold Treatment

    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.

  • Making the Pendant Frame and Assembly

    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.

  • Weaving of Bamboo/Rattan Pendant Shade

    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.

  • Final Quality Assurance and Testing

    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.

Caring for natural rattan pendant light

Regular Dusting and Light Cleaning

  • Use a soft-bristled brush or microfiber cloth for weekly dusting

  • Gently brush along the diamond weave pattern to remove accumulated dust

  • Avoid using water or liquid cleaners on the natural rattan material

  • Work in circular motions following the weave direction

Deep Cleaning for Extended Use

  • Every few months, take the shade down and dust from the inside of the lattice

  • A barely damp cloth is only for the metal canopy and cord — never soak the weave

  • Let the fixture dry fully before restoring power

Electrical Component Safety Inspection

  • Check the cord and canopy screws once a year for looseness or wear

  • Replace the bulb with the fixture switched off at the wall

  • If the socket or cord is damaged, stop using the light and contact us

Long-term Protection and Preservation

  • Keep out of direct, prolonged sun to limit color shift in the cane

  • Avoid steam, bathrooms, and range hoods — rattan expands with moisture

  • Natural tonal variation and small knots are expected, not defects

FAQs About Wabi Sabi Modern Teardrop Pendant Light

1. What interior design style(s) does this fixture suit?

The ribbed teardrop shell and warm white or red-brown matte finish suit Scandinavian and minimalist interiors well. Its clean, sculptural form also fits modern and Japandi rooms.

2. How do I choose the right size for my room?

This single 13 inch teardrop suits compact dining nooks centered above the table, bedside corners in place of a table lamp, and kitchen islands clustered in twos or threes for even coverage.

3. What ceiling height and cord length does this pendant need?

Standard 8 foot ceilings work well for dining, bedroom, and entryway placements alike. The adjustable cord runs 20 to 59 inches, giving enough range to clear tables, islands, or nightstands comfortably.

4. Is a new-plastic smell normal for this molded teardrop shell?

Yes, a light manufacturing odor is typical right after unboxing and usually clears within a day of leaving it in a ventilated room. It's an expected part of the HDPE molding process, nothing to worry about.

5. What's the recommended way to wipe down the ribbed shell?

A soft, slightly damp cloth run along the ribs clears dust without leaving marks on the matte finish. Harsh chemicals and abrasive pads should be avoided, as they dull the smooth molded surface.

6. Does this shade need special care in kitchens or damp areas?

Unlike woven or ceramic-look shades, this resin shell shrugs off moisture, cracking, and mold with no extra precautions needed. It's a solid pick for kitchens or covered porches where humidity fluctuates.

7. Will the finish lose its color intensity as the years pass?

Under everyday indoor lighting, the white or red-brown matte coating keeps its depth of color for a long stretch of use. Years of unfiltered sun exposure is really the only thing that would visibly soften it.

8. What if I find a crack in the shell right after delivery?

A same-day photo sent to customer support gets the process moving quickly for shipping-related damage. From there they'll either coordinate a replacement shell or advise on the best next step.

9. Is the fixture's hardwiring compatible with a non-US junction box?

Out of the box, the UL plate is engineered for standard US ceiling boxes. Anyone working with older wiring or non-US electrical standards should confirm fit with a licensed electrician beforehand.

10. What replacement bulb pairs best with this shade's glow?

Both E26 and E27 base bulbs up to 60W work here, and either is easy to find at hardware or lighting stores. A clear or frosted A19/G25 bulb near 2700K complements the shell's diffused output.
