Scandinavian Ceiling Light with a Slatted Wood Shade
This Scandinavian Ceiling Light is built from narrow wood slats set upright around a metal frame, so the shade is a cage rather than a solid surface. The slats hide the lamp from directly below and let a fine striped light out through the gaps, which is the whole point of the construction: the fixture is bright enough to work over a dining table and open enough to throw a soft pattern on the ceiling. The profile is a flattened lens, wide across with a short cone on top where the cord enters. Two finishes change it completely. Natural wood keeps the shade warm and almost disappears in a pale room; walnut is much darker and reads as a solid object against a white wall. Two sizes, 43 cm and 55 cm across, cover a small table and a full one. The frame takes an E26 or E27 base and the shade is handcrafted, so the grain and the spacing vary a little between pieces.
