Shopping for handmade woven lamps? Don’t rush in. Ask these five key questions to avoid style mismatches, safety issues, or buyer’s regret—whether it’s a bamboo, raffia, or macrame fixture.

Before falling in love with that gorgeous handwoven rattan lamp or bamboo hanging lamp, make sure you ask these essential questions. Handmade lighting adds charm—but only when it fits your space and needs perfectly.
1. Where Will It Be Installed?
Not all woven lamps are suitable for all environments. A tropical woven light might look fantastic on a covered patio, but if it’s not designed for moisture, it won't last. Always check if it’s rated for indoor use.
2. How Much Light Do You Need?
A raffia pendant lamp or macrame pendant light may diffuse light softly—ideal for ambiance but not for tasks like reading. Clarify your purpose before selecting the weave and shape.
3. Is It Truly Eco-Friendly?
Labels like "eco" can be vague. Look for certifications or trusted artisan sources. Lamps like the eco jute ceiling lamp or Artisan eco-friendly Handmade Boho restaurant woven natural rattan bamboo light are more reliable choices.
4. Does It Match the Room’s Theme?
Design harmony matters. A woven bohemian lamp suits relaxed, earthy interiors. Meanwhile, a Scandinavian woven lamp fits better in minimalist or Nordic-style homes.
5. Can It Be Returned or Repaired?
Handmade items may vary. Check return policies or repair guarantees, especially for large pieces like a wicker chandelier or woven shade ceiling lamp that may arrive differently than expected.
