Rattan lamps bring the warmth of the natural world into your living space — handwoven textures casting soft, dappled light that feels a world away from the flat glow of standard ceiling fixtures. This collection gathers boho table lamps crafted from sustainably sourced rattan, each one a small exercise in slow living and considered craft.
What's inside the collection
Our rattan lamps are handwoven table lamps in three finishes: natural rattan, dark brown and black. Each boho table lamp comes with an integrated UK plug, and the natural rattan lamp includes a bulb so you can use it straight away. The woven rattan shade sits over a simple E27 fitting, giving you flexibility to swap in your preferred bulb wattage and colour temperature.
How to choose your rattan lamp
Think about the room and the mood you want to create. The natural rattan finish works beautifully with light woods, creams and linen — it feels open and relaxed. The dark brown brings warmth against pale walls, while the black adds definition in a minimal or industrial space. All three are compact enough for a bedside table or sideboard, but substantial enough to anchor a living room corner.
Consider pairing with a Himalayan salt lamp nearby for a layered glow, or explore boho lamp shades in complementary natural fibres to extend the look across a room.
Ways to use and style your lamp
Rattan lighting suits the slow-living home because it does not demand attention — it rewards it. Place a table lamp beside your favourite reading chair, on a bedroom side table, or in a hallway where you want a sense of arrival. The dappled, warm quality of the light through woven rattan creates the kind of atmosphere that makes a room feel inhabited rather than merely furnished.

Frequently asked questions
What material is the lampshade made from?
The shade is handwoven from natural rattan — a fast-growing, sustainable palm used in traditional craft across Southeast Asia. Each piece varies slightly, which is part of its character. The base is a simple, sturdy structure designed to hold the shade securely.
Do the lamps come with a bulb included?
The natural rattan table lamp includes a bulb. The dark brown and black versions do not include a bulb, but all three feature a standard E27 bulb holder compatible with most common bulb types, including LED and dimmable options.
How do I care for a natural rattan lamp?
Rattan is durable but prolonged moisture. Dust the shade regularly with a soft brush, and wipe the base with a barely damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, which can damage the fibres. With gentle care, a rattan lamp ages beautifully over time.
What type of plug do these table lamps use?
All lamps in this collection come fitted with a UK plug, ready to use with standard UK sockets. No adaptor is needed.
Can the rattan lamp be used outdoors?
Rattan lamps are best suited to indoor use in dry spaces. If you want to use them in a covered outdoor area, keep them sheltered from rain and bring them inside during wet or cold seasons to protect the natural fibres.
