Light feels gentler through woven plant fibre. This set of three banana leaf lamp shades brings warmth, texture and a sculptural natural shape to a room, with raffia adding a soft, tactile finish. Unlit, they read as woven objects in their own right; switched on, they let light pass through the weave with a quiet, organic glow.
What the woven shades bring to a room
A graduated set of three, useful for creating a layered pendant cluster or repeating the same natural texture through different spaces.
Banana leaf gives the shades their rope-like woven structure, with a surface that feels earthy rather than polished.
Raffia softens the look, adding fine fibre detail and a relaxed boho mood.
The open weave brings shadow and depth, so the shade has presence even before the light is on.
Natural colour and finish will vary, giving each piece its own quiet differences.
Banana leaf and raffia, shaped by hand
These banana leaf lamp shades are handmade in Indonesia from banana leaf and raffia. The fibre is woven and shaped into rounded forms, giving each shade a handmade texture rather than a perfectly uniform surface.
Because the materials are natural, small changes in tone, fibre thickness and finish are part of the character. They suit interiors where wood, linen, clay, stone or simple white walls need a little more warmth.
Soft structure for pendant lighting
The three sizes are designed to sit together or apart. Hang them as a loose cluster over a dining table, place one in a quiet corner, or use the set to bring the same woven language through a hallway, bedroom and living space.
The effect is best where the shade can be seen as well as used: above a low table, in an open stairwell, or anywhere hard surfaces need softening with natural texture.
Using and caring for natural fibre
Use with a suitable light fitting and bulb chosen for your lamp. Keep the shades indoors and away from damp areas, as plant fibres can mark or change shape with moisture.
