A soft, sculptural ceiling pendant — cotton paper hand-pasted onto a bamboo-rib frame, shaped into a rounded onion silhouette with horizontal ribbing that catches the light. Two sizes: 17.7″ or 23.6″ diameter. The paper diffuses the bulb into a warm, even glow. For dining tables, foyers, bedrooms, or a quiet living-room corner.

Onion silhouette

Wide rounded body that tapers to a narrow top — soft and sculptural, lit or unlit.

Hand-pasted paper

Cotton paper hand-pasted onto fine bamboo ribs; ribs show faintly through the paper when lit.

Warm even glow

The paper diffuses the bulb evenly — no glare, no hot spots, a soft pool of warm light.

Handcrafted — slight variation expected

The paper is hand-pasted onto the bamboo frame. Each shade shows slight differences in paper texture, paste lines, and how light passes through the ribs — part of the craft, not a defect. for photos of in-stock pieces before ordering.

Paper-shade safety — use an LED bulb only

The shade is paper on a bamboo frame and the bulb hangs inside. Use only an LED bulb up to 40W — incandescent and halogen bulbs run too hot for a paper shade and can scorch or ignite. Do not exceed the wattage on the socket label.

Installation & Care

Hardwired ceiling install over a standard junction box — a licensed electrician is recommended.
Use only an LED bulb, E26/E27 medium base, max 40W. Never use incandescent or halogen — the paper shade can scorch. Bulb not included.
For a dining table, allow 30–36″ between the bottom of the shade and the table surface. The cord can be shortened during install; if you need a custom drop length confirmed in advance.
The paper shade and bamboo ribs are delicate. Lift the pendant by the ceiling canopy, not the shade. Avoid bumping into the shade once installed.
Indoor and dry locations only (IP20). Not for bathrooms, outdoor exposure, or kitchen steam areas — paper absorbs moisture and will warp.
Dust the shade with a soft, dry brush only. Do not use water, cleaners, or vacuum suction — water will spot the paper and suction can pull or tear it.

Looking at the breakfast area as a whole, this pendant works with what we already owned surprisingly well, and that matters more to me than any single detail. It has a little more visual presence than I expected, so I simplified the area around it, but I like the result. I like that it gives the breakfast area character without feeling like a trend piece. The room has more depth now, but it is still comfortable. I expected this to be more of a statement piece, but it actually settles into the room very easily.

In the finished dining area, this choice adds enough character without feeling loud, especially in the evening. It changed the mood of the room without forcing me to change the furniture around it. I am glad I left the rest of the space fairly simple around it. The paper is one of those details I appreciate when I am close to it, not something that dominates the room.

In the room, this choice adds enough character without feeling loud.

For the balance of the breakfast area, the pendant changed the room more than I expected. The paper adds character, though I still think the overall effect in the room is the strongest part. I appreciate it more now than I did on the first day. I notice the difference most when the rest of the room is quiet and the light is on.
