Plant fibre shade
Our Ewer light shade has an abaca fibre outer and a linen lining. As a natural material, each length of plant fibre is unique and as such variations in colour will occur. The metalwork is dark bronze finished.
Solid oak base
The base of our Ewer light is made from European oak, a slow growing hardwood native tree to Europe. It has a golden to light brown colouring with a variety of grain patterns. Oak is very hard, durable wood and gets darker and richer with age. We use a protective white oil finish to allow the timber to age gracefully without heavy discolouration and withstand daily spillage.
European oak can display a variety of characteristics from straight grain to large swirling crown cut grain Medullary rays and small 'Cats paw' knots, all of which are an intrinsic and natural part of the grain pattern.

What bulbs work with this light?
Bulb recommendations can be found in the "Lighting specification" section of the product page.
Is the light compatible with LED bulbs?
This piece is compatible with LED bulbs. We recommend using LED bulbs only.
Are the light switches dimmable?
All of our table lights are supplied with a dimmer switch as standard.
What do UL and CE mean?
Different countries have different safety certification for lighting. UL is the USA certification and CE is the EU standard. Please check which option is acceptable for the country you are using the light in, for example Canada uses UL and Australia uses CE.
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is a global safety certification for lighting supplied to the United States. Any light fixtures sold into the United States or Canada must use components or have the whole fixture tested by Underwriters Laboratories to ensure the highest safety standards.
Our UL lighting uses UL listed components.
The CE marking is required for goods sold in the European Economic Area. "CE" is the abbreviation of "conformité européenne" (French for "European conformity"). Any light fixtures sold into the EU must be assessed and deemed to meet EU safety, health and environmental protection requirements.
Our CE lighting uses CE listed components.
How is this piece installed? Does it require an electrician?
Each light is supplied with individual installation instructions. If you require these ahead of delivery, please contact our sales team. We recommend hiring a certified electrician for the installation.
Can this piece be used in a bathroom?
This piece may be used in a bathroom but careful consideration needs to be given where the fixture is to be situated. We do not recommend using our fittings in a very moist environment.
Light fittings are given an IP rating which dictates their suitability for a particular environment either inside or outside the home. The IP stands for ‘Ingress Protection’ and is followed by a 2-digit number which rates its level of protection against intrusion by objects (digit 1) and level of waterproofing (digit 2). Our lighting is rated IP20.
You need to establish in which area of your bathroom the light will be placed and how exposed it will be to water. Electrical safety regulations break down the bathroom area into clear zones to help you select the right fitting with the appropriate IP rating for the level of protection required. Please refer to your local country regulations on this. For areas in the bathroom which fall outside of zones close to water, no IP ratings are required and our fittings can be used.
Can this piece be used outside?
This piece is made from natural materials and we do not recommend it for outdoor use.
Can I customise this piece?
We do not offer customisation options as standard on our lighting collection as the pieces are made in small batches. However, if you have a project that requires customisation on multiple pieces, please contact our sales team to see how we can accommodate your request.
Can the cord that comes with this piece be changed?
Our lighting is supplied with a natural coloured weave flex as standard. This cord has been designed as part of the piece and thus we do not offer custom cord colours.
Where is the plant fibre grown?
The plant fibre is grown in the Philippines. It is made from the leaves of an Abaca plant and is inherently sustainable.
What is the weight of the product?
Approximate product weights can be found on the spec sheet downloaded from the product page. The weight excludes any packaging.
How do I clean the light?
It is best to avoid liquid cleaners. Any settled dust may be removed using a vacuum on the low setting.
Can I order samples of this material?
Unfortunately we do not provide samples of this material. Our website has been designed to illustrate the detail of our pieces and the finishes and material they are made from. If you require any additional imagery, our sales team will be more than happy to send you photos from our shop floor.
