Thanks to its durability, cost-effectiveness, and versatile aesthetic style, rattan lampshades have grown in favor in recent years as more people have adopted natural living lifestyles.

How to make a rattan lampshade?

Be assured of the Rattan Lamp Shades’ quality at every stage of production as Arteco Phu Hy thoroughly modifies and controls each product to ensure the best quality when it reaches to customers.

Step 1: Cut the rattan

One of the most important steps of making a rattan lampshade is preparing the right elements. Rattan is a solid and straight material but it also means the material must be split into small parts in order to bend and weave the shade.

Step 2: Prepare the metal frame

Most rattan shades feature a metal frame to maintain their shape and guarantee uniformity across the lampshade. This metal frame should also be thoroughly powder-coated so that it is not rust.

Step 3: Weave the rattan onto the metal frame

In the process is attaching the rattan strips to the frame. Our artisans will weave the pattern as design of lampshade with support of frame. This stage takes a high level of competence since the rattan will not come off the frame once it is fastened.

Step 4: Spray the color on the lampshade (if required)

If customers want a more colorful tone rather than the natural rattan one, we can spray the paint onto it once the weaving is completed. The common colors are white, black, brown.

Step 5: Drying 

After the spraying stages, products will be dried using sunshine or a dryer in the warehouse to get best moisture. The ideal moisture is under 18% for rattan lampshade.

Product Inspections 

In this section, we will check the product’s size, color, amount of moisture, and overall quality of lampshades. Specifically, cutting redundant parts, adjusting product form, and eliminating distorted and skewed things. All products that fail to meet the requirements will be discarded. In addition, the quantity of the whole order as well as the number of each product line will be strictly inventoried, ensuring no short problems.

Packing 

The best quality products will be packed in paper to reduce shock and prevent breakage during transportation, then all are put in standard export carton boxes for shipping. In particular, our company also provides customized packaging services including tag label, silica gel bag, carton box with logo for individual packing. 

Fumigation

Finally, it will be fumigated to eliminate any possible pests and insects in products as well as packing and to keep the ship and cargo compartments free of contamination while transporting.

Follow these instructions to maintain a rattan lampshade in a good condition:

Avoid direct sunlight in long time: Overtime exposure to direct sunlight might cause the rattan to fade or become brittle.

Minimize moisture exposure: Because rattan is prone to moisture damage, it is important to maintain the lamp shade free of damp or humid surroundings. Place it in dry places, if rattan lampshades are hung on outside for event decoration and get rain, try to dry them as soon as possible.

Spot clean when necessary: If there are any stains or spills on the lampshade, gently dab the affected area with a clean, wet towel. Excessive water and strong cleaning products might harm the rattan.

Protect from impact: Since rattan may be brittle, avoid hitting or bumping the lampshade against hard surfaces. Be careful when moving or cleaning it.

Apply a protective sealant (optional): If needed, apply a clear, non-yellowing sealer formulated particularly for natural materials like rattan. This can give another layer of protection while still preserving the shade’s look. When applying the sealant, make sure to follow the manufacturer’s directions.

Use proper bulb wattage: To avoid overheating, follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for bulb wattage. Excessive heat may dry out and make rattan fragile. On the other hand, lower-wattage lights or energy-efficient LED lamps can assist minimize heat generation. 

Store appropriately: If you need to temporarily store the lampshade, make it clean and dry. To prevent dust gathering and damage, keep it in a dust-free environment and consider covering it with a breathable plasic bag or putting it in a protective bag.

How to clean
