You do not need to know which lamp. Hà draws it into your own photo so you can see where the light falls, and revises it until you nod before any brass is bent.

48 hours

for the first mock-up, free

3 weeks

from approval to the lamp lit at home

One of one

each lamp numbered under its canopy

- [1 Sept 2026 · Lâm Văn LộcRaw brass darkens over the years, and that is normalWhy uncoated brass lamp frames change colour, whether you can keep them bright, and when a matte black or white frame makes more sense.](/en/journal/brass-lamp-patina)
- [25 Aug 2026 · Huỳnh Thị MếnA bedside lamp in dó paper: light through bark paperDó paper is made from the bark of the dó tree: strong, fibrous, resistant to insects. Why light through it is soft, which bulbs to use, where to avoid it.](/en/journal/do-paper-bedside-lamp)

## What people ask us

### What bulb does it take, and where do I buy a new one?

A standard E27 LED, 2700K, 6 W, sold in any electrical shop. Every lamp comes with one bulb and a spare.

### My ceiling is 2.6 m. Can I hang a pendant?

Yes, over a table or a bed where nobody walks underneath, with the bottom 70 to 80 cm above the table. Not over a walkway.

### Does rattan go mouldy?

Shades get a matte moisture coat. In a ventilated room they stay clean; avoid porches and bathrooms. Brush off dust monthly.

### How much is the deposit?

50% when you approve the drawing, 50% after installation once you have switched the lamp on. Bank transfer, e-invoice.

### How long until I have the lamp?

Three weeks from the deposit. If the workshop is late, 5% off the order for each week.
