Twiggy Bamboo Pendant Lamp

Does this light come fully assembled or do I have to shape the bamboo shade myself?

Many handcrafted bamboo lights are shipped pre-shaped, but some may require gentle unfolding or reshaping upon arrival to avoid creasing or damage during transit.

Will the bulb create a bright spot or hot spot on the bamboo over time?

If using high-heat incandescent bulbs, there could be mild discoloration. Using LED bulbs helps prevent this and keeps the fixture cool.

Does the light flicker or change appearance depending on the time of day?

Yes, natural woven materials can appear darker in low light and glow warmly when the sun or bulb shines through during different times of the day.

Does this design block the view if hung above a dining table?

Its rounded and semi-transparent form allows for visibility through the weave, making it less visually intrusive than solid shade designs.

Is there any certification or safety standard I should look for before installing?

Check if the socket and wiring are certified for indoor use in your country (like UL, CE, or BIS marks), especially with artisan or imported fixtures.

How does this style compare in brightness to a solid metal or glass shade?

This design emits softer, mood-enhancing light rather than focused brightness. It's ideal for ambient lighting, not strong task illumination.

Will the light fixture make creaking or natural sounds over time?

Some natural materials like bamboo may lightly creak in humid environments or with seasonal changes — it’s a normal trait of organic products.
