A traditionally handwoven Thai bamboo fishing trap, re-purposed into a beautifully minimalistic pendant light.

Various sizes available - For reference, the baskets in the first trio pic are A, B and C. Oblong is the natural shape but they can be made spherical and other shapes easily.

The basket is compressible/expandable like a concertina and can achieve many shapes and position - the oblong shape is the natural position/shape - the round shapes as shown in the listing pictures for example are achieved simply by compressing from each end, and tying the supplied string inside to pull taut as shown to then hold in desired position.


[ About ]

A classic example of Asian craftmanship, these fishing traps are handwoven from natural bamboo using techniques that are centuries old. We've added a simple yet precise hanging lamp holder that can be adjusted with an adjustable metal support bracket so that you can position your bulb anywhere inside the basket, along with a choice of ceiling rose to match your style/theme.

The basket can be opened/closed like a concertina to get a variety of shapes and fixed in position with string, from the long droplet style to a round circle.

'Basket Only' option includes the metal cord bracket and cord grips.


[ Cable length / options ]

The cable can be made to any length. If you would like a specific length not in the listing options, simply purchase the closest meter from the listing options and add in the order notes the specific length you require. For example, if you would like a cable length 265cm, purchase the 3m deals option and add the 265cm request in the order notes. We would then make a cable set that is 265cm long.

If you require longer than options listed, you can purchase additional length by the meter here, and same thing applies : https://www.etsy.com/listing/631615382/additional-cable-length-lighting-cable

Length is cable from plug/ceiling plate, to bulb holder

SWITCH OPTIONS - ** Please note - the plug version (not ceiling/hardwired) does not have a switch on the cable as default. The light must be switched on and off at the plug outlet. A switch can be added by request to the black and white cable versions (just send a message to let us know how many cm from the plug you would like the switch positioned, we will also message buyers to ask) but unfortunately a switch is not able to be added to the natural rope style due to it's thickness. The ceiling versions are hardwired and so no cable switch is needed as they use the light switch in your home already. **
