Hallways And Quiet Stairwells
This is a dry location fixture, so it belongs in a hallway, a stairwell, or a screened porch with a solid roof and walls. Keep it away from an exposed entry wall, a garden fence, or anywhere rain, snow or blown spray can reach.
Warm Glow Through Glass
A clear filament bulb suits the kerosene reference and looks correct through the glass chimney. Keep the colour temperature warm, around 2200K, so the bamboo stays golden rather than washing out to grey under a cooler lamp.
Bamboo, Metal And Glass
Woven bamboo over a metal frame with a glass chimney shade. The wrapping is what gives it character, catching light in a way painted metal never does, and it is the detail that carries the piece whichever design you choose.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use this outside?
No. It is rated for dry locations only and it is not waterproof, so it should not be mounted anywhere rain, snow or blown spray can reach it. A hallway, a stairwell, or a screened porch with a solid roof and walls is right. An exposed entry wall, a garden fence, or a porch open to weather is not.
What are the three versions?
Type A comes in red copper, which is darker and warmer, or yellow copper, which is brighter and more brass like. Type B is offered in red copper and differs in the frame profile and the proportion of the glass. All three share the same bamboo detailing and the same fitting.
Does it include a bulb?
No. It takes a single E26 bulb, which is not supplied. A clear filament bulb suits the kerosene reference and looks correct seen through the glass chimney, where a frosted or spiral lamp reads wrong. Stay warm, around 2200K, so the bamboo keeps its golden tone instead of washing out under a cooler light.
How high should I mount it?
Roughly eye level or a little above, the way a real kerosene lamp would have hung. Give it enough clear wall around it that the silhouette reads properly, because the shape is doing most of the work here. On a stairwell, set it so the glass sits above head height for anyone passing on the treads below.
What does the woven bamboo add?
It is what gives the lantern its character. The woven base catches light in a way painted metal never does, so the shape reads warm rather than hard against a wall. The metal frame and the glass chimney do the structural work while the bamboo carries the look, and a warm bulb keeps it golden.
