Know before you buy
No, the pendant arrives as a flat-pack kitset. You will need to assemble the bamboo components yourself, which is a key part of the design process intended to reduce shipping impact.
The fixture uses a single E26 base incandescent bulb with a maximum wattage of 100 watts. While it is designed for incandescent bulbs, you may be able to use a compatible LED equivalent, provided it fits the E26 base and meets your brightness preferences.
The intricate bamboo structure is designed to cast captivating, organic shadows on your walls and ceiling. It provides ambient, diffused lighting that creates a warm, sculptural focal point rather than focused task lighting.
The Flax Pendant is hardwired and comes with a 6-foot cord. While it is suitable for many residential and commercial spaces, you should consult with a professional electrician to ensure the canopy and mounting hardware are compatible with your specific ceiling pitch.
Yes, the bamboo is sustainably sourced and chosen for its structural integrity. To keep it in top condition, simply dust it periodically with a soft cloth or a feather duster to prevent buildup within the intricate cutouts.
