Both are newly rewired for the us with new sockets taking e14 bulbs, which are easy to find in america and europe, and we can swap in a plug for any other country at no cost.

each base starts as a low, stepped foot of coiled reed, with a smooth cane stem rising from its center. The shade is what makes the design. Upright rattan rods are bunched unevenly along the rim and braced by a pair of bent hoops, and one long diagonal cuts across the cage.
