Suspended on chain from brass-tone ceiling fittings, they diffuse a warm, filtered glow and bring natural texture and a relaxed, sun-washed character to a room.

Coiled bamboo and rattan lighting belongs to the easy, Riviera-inflected side of Italian design and is again widely sought by designers today. Hung in tandem over a long dining table or kitchen island, or used to define a sunroom, garden room or covered porch, the pair carries real presence while remaining visually light. The two shades show slight natural variation in tone, as is typical of the material.

Dimensions (each): approximately 28 in. diameter.

Condition: age-appropriate wear consistent with use, including marks to the finish, scratches and scuffs. We recommend that the wiring be checked by a qualified electrician prior to installation. Please see photographs for details. See less
