Each body is an egg-shaped, pear-like form, wider at the bottom and gently domed at the shoulder, built from long, supple rattan strands that wrap around the frame in crisscrossing diagonals. The open lattice creates a dense, basket-like web, and the gaps let light pass through for a dappled glow. The cane glows in warm honey, wheat, and golden-straw tones, with subtle variation from strand to strand and a soft, aged patina. At the top, the rattan gathers beneath a small brass collar that joins a slim, antiqued brass stem. Above it sits a polished brass socket with a turn knob and a harp holder. Beneath the woven globe, a thick, round plinth in matte metal carries a mottled blue-green verdigris finish, with darker slate undertones and chalky highlights that echo an aged copper patina. The tactile weave and the cool, mineral-toned base give the pair a grounded, artisanal presence. The rattan is tidy and well shaped, and the hardware has a warm, mellow tone.

Compact yet full of presence, these lamps suit a bedside table, console, buffet, or sideboard, and they sit neatly on a pair of nightstands in a bedroom or sunroom. They complement Boho Chic, Coastal, Organic Modern, Mid-Century Modern, and Tropical interiors. Each lamp measures 7.25 inches wide, 7.25 inches deep, and 16 inches high, to the top of the socket and without a shade. Condition is very good: the rattan is in excellent shape with a warm natural patina, and the metal shows minor tarnishing consistent with age. For care, dust with a soft brush or vacuum attachment, avoid water on the rattan, and keep the lamps away from direct sun and damp. Rewiring or electrical testing is recommended before use, and a shade is not included. Inquire today to secure this charming pair. See less
