The bamboo ceiling light: A very natural exotic atmosphere!
When you want to create a warm atmosphere with soft light throughout any room, the bamboo ceiling light is ready to illuminate it just right! In this explanatory text, we will explain the advantages of lighting fixtures made from this natural, durable, and lightweight material.
Why choose bamboo for your ceiling?
We are seeing more and more changes in the design of recessed lamps, wall lights, and pendant lights, which increasingly incorporate plant-based materials. Rattan and hemp are often mentioned as alternative materials for designing chandeliers and ceiling lights, but bamboo is a very popular plant-based material for several reasons.
-
Eco-friendly material
Bamboo grows back quickly once cut. There is no need to replant seeds! It also requires no chemical treatment. Finally, it is worth noting that it produces more oxygen than trees. It is therefore an excellent alternative when choosing a modern light fixture that helps preserve natural wood resources.
-
Lightweight and durable material
This is no secret. The durability and strength of this material make it ideal as a decorative lampshade or as a base for a metal, glass, or wood ceiling light.
-
Soothing atmosphere
It is very subjective, but the modern and exotic style of bamboo ceiling lights creates a relaxed atmosphere in every way. Whether you choose an elliptical recessed pendant light with a woven lampshade or a cylindrical, openwork model, the room's general lighting will be enhanced by the bamboo design.
The different types of bamboo ceiling lights
Art deco is limitless and offers a multitude of pendant lights for every room in the house.
The choice of ceiling light depends on your personal taste, but also on the room. In general, in our online store, we offer recessed ceiling light styles in traditional designs, as well as some more original ones.
In our wide range, we offer various models, such as one of the most popular: a cylindrical or conical design with interwoven bamboo slats, or woven bamboo, all set on a chrome metal base. This shape creates beautiful focused lighting. It is a minimalist design that looks wonderful above a coffee table during an aperitif or above a dining room.
We also have bamboo spotlights that can be aimed, mounted on a base made of aged wood or metal. The advantage of these bamboo shades is that they focus the light on a specific area, revealing the beauty of bamboo in every corner of the room.
Whether in the living room, bathroom, or kitchen, bamboo's resistance to moisture and ease of maintenance make it suitable for installation anywhere.
For a child's or parent's bedroom, you can install one of our designer light models on the ceiling in an openwork bell shape with bamboo slats. This style diffuses light through the bamboo throughout the bedroom, creating a soft effect ideal for falling asleep.
Finally, our online selection includes round or square pendant lights that house an LED or classic energy-saving bulb, illuminating the room through an opening of varying width at the bottom.
Bamboo ceiling lights fit in everywhere
Whether you have a Mediterranean living room or one in a Scandinavian style, or even an industrial style, bamboo blends perfectly with the surrounding decor.
In a Scandinavian living room, bamboo pairs well with this type of minimalist interior, adding a natural and zen touch. It will be a great complement to an ambient bedside lamp or a black metal pendant light.
In a loft, living room, or industrial kitchen, however, it can be bold but is certainly possible! If the combination is harmonious, it will create a stunning pendant light as well as a natural and rustic atmosphere. In an industrial setting, a bamboo ceiling light can incorporate metal elements, such as a black nickel or aluminum frame, or even rusted metal. This respects the raw, industrial style while adding a natural and organic accent.
A pendant ceiling light with black metal details and thin bamboo slats can soften the rigid appearance of metal while remaining in harmony with the industrial atmosphere. To ensure harmony between each light source, choose bulbs of approximately 15 watts.
Which bulb is right for my bamboo ceiling light?
We love bamboo or rattan lights, or even hemp ones, with designer LED bulbs fitted directly inside the ceiling light. They feature a filament visible through the woven material lampshade. This creates a retro exotic atmosphere that will make you feel like you are in a tavern from Pirates of the Caribbean! You can also choose a classic LED bulb fitted into a ceiling light completely encased in bamboo, but with a rounded opening. The white light diffuses freely throughout the room this way! You can achieve the same type of effect with a rattan ceiling light.
