Wicker Pendant Light Woven Globe Shade Hanging Ceiling Lamp

A solid shade gives you a circle of light on the floor and a dark ceiling. A woven one does something else. Light leaks through every gap in the weave, so the ball itself glows and the pattern lands on the walls around it. The effect is closer to a lantern than a lamp, and it is what you are buying it for.

What the Open Weave Does

The strands are wound loosely, leaving gaps all over the ball.

Light comes through those gaps as well as the open bottom.

So the shade reads as a glowing sphere rather than a dark shape.

On a plain ceiling you get a web of shadow and light around it.

The pattern is stronger in a dim room and washes out in a bright one.

A pale shade glows more. A dark one throws a sharper pattern.

It gives ambient light rather than useful task light.

Do not rely on it over a kitchen bench where you need to see.

Over a dining table or beside a bed it does exactly the right job.

The pattern lands best on a plain ceiling and gets lost on a busy one.

A pale wall nearby will pick up the shadows too.

In a room with a lot of pattern already, the effect disappears.

Picking a Width and a Colour

The 5.9 in ball is small enough to hang in a group of three.

The 7.9 in suits a bedside or a small hallway.

The 9.8 in works over a dining table on its own.

The 11.8 in is a statement piece and needs ceiling height to carry it.

Twelve colours is a lot, and most rooms want one of the neutrals.

Cream, beige and brown read as natural fibre and stay quiet.

Black is graphic and holds its shape against a pale ceiling.

The bright colours work in a cluster, hung at mixed heights.

Colours read differently lit and unlit, so check both before committing.

A dark shade looks solid by day and dramatic at night.

A pale one glows warmly lit and stays quiet by day.

Hanging and Care

The cord is 39.4 in and shortens at the rose.

Hang the bottom about 30 in above a dining table.

A group of three at staggered heights suits a stairwell.

The shade is light, so a standard ceiling rose carries it.

Dust it with a soft brush rather than a damp cloth.

Woven fibre marks if you wet it, so keep it dry.

Keep it away from steam, which means not directly over a hob.

At 2.2 lb the whole fixture weighs less than it looks.

The supplier lists an integrated LED with bulbs included.

The images show a screw lampholder inside the ball instead.

No integrated LED is claimed here, so confirm the fitting before ordering a lamp.
