Its structure is defined by slender vertical wooden rods arranged evenly around the shade, creating a ribbed, almost architectural rhythm.

These rods sit over a burlap inner layer—that acts as a diffuser. When lit, this inner surface produces a warm, filtered glow, with the light subtly broken up by the vertical slats.

The top and bottom edges are finished with a thick macramé-style braided trim, which softens the geometry and introduces a tactile, decorative rustic detail. Small protruding ends of the wooden rods extend slightly beyond the lower edge, giving the piece a slightly irregular, handmade character.

The overall effect is:

Structured but soft
Textural rather than smooth
Warm and atmospheric rather than bright

Measurements:

Shade height 24cm

Bottom diameter 27cm

When seen from below it forms a slightly oval shape.

It comes equipped with a white cord and a plactic ceiling cup, E27 light bulb socket.
