Prenium Hanging Woven Lampshade

The “Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade” by Dwakrom

The sense of warmth and welcome is present in every home; this feeling extends beyond four walls and is best expressed through carefully designed décor. At Dwakrom, we think that lighting is about creating an experience, an environment, and a narrative rather than just providing light in a room. This idea is embodied in our newest product, the Prenium Hanging Woven Lampshade, which skillfully combines modern style with handmade heritage to create an eye-catching center point for any space.

The Story Behind Dwakrom’s Craftsmanship

Dwakrom’s journey began with a simple idea: to celebrate local artistry by connecting skilled Ghanaian weavers with design enthusiasts around the world. Each piece we curate or create is steeped in tradition, passed down through generations, yet redesigned to meet modern tastes and lifestyles. The Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade is no exception. Born from the collaborative vision of master weavers in Bolgatanga and innovative designers in Accra, this lampshade marries the authenticity of handwoven craftsmanship with the elegance demanded by today’s home interiors. Over the years, Dwakrom has established strong bonds with local weaving cooperatives, ensuring fair compensation and sustainable practices. Every lampshade is a testament to these partnerships each twist of woven grass or raffia carries the pride of its maker, the cultural richness of Northern Ghana, and Dwakrom’s commitment to ethical production.

When we set out to design the Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade, our goal was clear: to evoke both rustic charm and refined sophistication. The soft, organic textures of natural fibers lend a cozy, inviting aura, while the sculptural form creates a modern silhouette. Drawing inspiration from the circular patterns found in traditional Bolga basketry and the serene symmetry of West African motifs, we crafted a product that feels timeless yet fresh. Instead of using stiff, industrial lines, we let the natural imperfections of hand weaving take center stage. Each lampshade is unique because of the human touches, such as the subtle variations in weave density and the way light and shadow interact. The end effect is a design that works well with a variety of interior styles, from eclectic bohemian to minimalist Scandinavian.

Considering Sustainability When Sourcing

At the heart of the Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade is a dedication to responsibly sourced materials. We work exclusively with:
Harvested from local raffia palm trees in Northern Ghana and dried under the sun, these fibers offer remarkable strength and flexibility. To ensure durability and stability, the internal structure is crafted from recycled iron. Each hoop and support rod is treated with a rust-resistant coating, guaranteeing longevity. When color accents are desired, we use plant-based dyes derived from indigo, hibiscus, and shea leaves. These dyes require minimal water and leave no harmful residues. By prioritizing such materials, we not only reduce ecological impact but also support local economies. Every purchase of the Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade directly contributes to sustainable livelihoods for Ghanaian communities.

The creation of a single Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade involves a series of meticulous steps: Local weavers begin by soaking raffia fibers in water to enhance pliability. Once softened, the fibers are stripped, washed, and laid out to sun-dry, ensuring optimal texture. For shades featuring colored patterns, dried fibers are immersed in natural dye baths. The weaver monitors the hue until it reaches the desired saturation and then rinses and dries the fibers again. Using age-old coil weaving techniques, artisans build the lampshade layer by layer. Each coil of raffia is sewn to the previous one with fine raffia thread, gradually forming a dome or globe shape. Once the weave is complete, the shade is fitted onto a lightweight iron frame. The junction points are reinforced with additional fibers, and any loose ends are carefully trimmed. Every lampshade undergoes a final inspection at the Dwakrom workshop in Accra. Experts check for evenness of weave, structural integrity, and dye consistency before packaging. Each Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade is transformed into a work of art through this time-consuming process, going beyond simply being a lighting fixture.

The Aesthetic Experience

One of the most enchanting qualities of the Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade is its interplay with light. When illuminated, the fine gaps between the woven fibers create intricate shadow patterns that dance across walls and ceilings. The woven structure diffuses the light source, offering a soft, ambient glow rather than harsh glare. In a living room, this creates an intimate, cozy environment perfect for conversations; in a dining space, it sets a relaxing tone for meals; and in a bedroom, it promotes calm and rest.

The choice of natural fibers means that light takes on a warm, golden hue, enhancing earthy color schemes or serving as a gentle contrast in cooler-toned interiors. Whether you choose the classic natural shade or opt for subtle dyed accents, the Premium Hanging Woven Lampshade transforms standard bulb light into an artful display.

Adding the Prenium Hanging Woven Lampshade to your home is straightforward and versatile. Here are some creative placements to consider. Above a wooden dining table, where its warmth complements natural materials and encourages communal gatherings.
In a reading nook, paired with a slender brass or matte black pendant cord, to create a cozy spot for books and blankets.
In a hallway or entryway, hung in a trio at varying heights, to make a striking first impression.
Over a kitchen island, where the organic texture softens the hardness of countertops and stainless steel appliances.
In an outdoor covered patio, provided it is sheltered from direct rain, to extend indoor comfort to open-air entertaining. Regardless of placement, adjust the hanging height so the shade sits comfortably above eye level typically 28 to 34 inches above tabletop surfaces or 72 inches above the floor ensuring both functionality and aesthetic balance.
