Honest buyer note: Our lamps are handwoven by village artisans in Bali and Java, so expect natural colour variation and a size tolerance of roughly ±1–3 cm on larger shades. All prices, MOQs, lead times and container counts are indicative ranges (2024–2025, FOB Indonesia) and final pricing is by quote. Standard wiring is E27 at 220–240 V; we can supply CE-compliant wiring or shade-only (no electrics) so you meet UL/UKCA or local standards in your market — we don’t imply certification we don’t hold. Natural fibre is moisture-sensitive, so we dry, treat and pack appropriately and recommend acclimatisation on arrival. Rattan is generally not CITES-listed. We coordinate vetted workshops and handle export documentation.
The rattan lamp wholesale price in 2025 typically ranges from around US$8 to over US$120 per piece FOB Indonesia, depending mainly on size, weave complexity and finish, shade-only. Below you’ll find clear FOB ranges, MOQs and export notes for rattan pendant, floor and table lamps from Bali and Java village workshops.
What “rattan lamp wholesale price” means in our context
All prices here are:
- Indicative 2024–2025 ranges, last internally verified June 2026
- FOB Indonesia (typically Port of Semarang or Surabaya), shade-only (no bulb)
- Wholesale / B2B for importers, retailers, brands, hospitality and project buyers
- By quote: your final price depends on confirmed design, quantity and packing spec
Bali Rattan Lamps coordinates design, sampling, finishing, QC and export from Bali, with volume weaving mainly in Java (Cirebon area). Raw rattan is generally sourced from Kalimantan and Sulawesi, through vetted suppliers. We focus on honest specification and export transparency so you can cost your range properly at RFQ stage.
FOB rattan lamp price ranges by size (2025)
Below are typical FOB ranges for handwoven rattan lamp shades (pendant, floor and table bases) that we handle regularly. These cover most open-weave and semi-closed designs in natural peel or core, without bulb, and usually without ceiling canopies.
| Size class (shade) | Typical diameter / height | Indicative FOB range (US$) | Common use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small | Ø18–28 cm, H 18–30 cm | US$8–15 | Bedside, bar cluster, small table lamps |
| Medium | Ø30–40 cm, H 25–40 cm | US$12–25 | Dining for 2–4, café, standard floor lamps |
| Large | Ø45–60 cm, H 35–55 cm | US$20–45 | Dining for 4–8, living room feature |
| Statement / XL | Ø65–100+ cm, H 45–80 cm | US$50–120+ | Hotel lobbies, double-height spaces, clusters |
These are shade-only prices. Adding wiring sets, ceiling cups, special finishes, inner fabric diffusers or mixed materials (e.g. rattan + metal frame) will move you toward the top or above each range.
Rattan pendant FOB price vs. floor and table
The rattan pendant FOB price for a “standard” open-weave medium shade (around Ø35 cm) is most often quoted somewhere in the US$14–22 range FOB, depending on:
- Rattan grade and diameter
- Weave density (open vs tight basket weave)
- Finish (raw clear coat vs solid color paint)
- Order quantity (per design and total order value)
Floor and table lamps are harder to generalize, because the base structure can be more material-heavy. A simple tripod base and shade might sit in the medium range; sculptural floor lamps with full-height weaving can be closer to the large or statement ranges.
What drives rattan lamp cost in bulk?
If you are budgeting how much rattan lamp wholesale should cost for your range, the main drivers are:
1. Size and volume of material
- Bigger shades use more rattan and more time, so cost escalates quickly once you pass about Ø45 cm.
- Height matters: tall drum or capsule forms use more vertical ribs and weaving.
- Shipping volume: XL pieces reduce how many units fit per container, so the freight cost per piece also rises, even if FOB is stable.
2. Weave density and complexity
Handweaving is labour. More strands and tighter patterns = higher cost.
- Simple open weaves (loose lattice, fish trap styles): bottom of each range.
- Medium basket or cross weaves: mid-range pricing.
- Fine or double-layer weaves, intricate patterns, or lined shades: top of the range or beyond.
3. Rattan type and frame
- Manau and similar canes for frames cost more than light bamboo or metal wire frames.
- Peel vs core: full-core or thicker peel gives a more solid feel but uses more material.
- Mixed-material construction (steel cages, powder coating) adds fabrication steps and cost.
4. Finish: natural, smoked, painted
- Natural + clear coat or matte sealant is usually the most economical.
- Smoked or kiln-darkened tones require extra processing and QC for color evenness.
- Painted finishes (white, black, custom color) add sanding, priming and multiple coats, especially for export-level durability.
5. Order quantity and assortment
- Per-design volume: higher quantities of one design make prep and weaving more efficient.
- Assortment complexity: 50 designs x 10 pcs each will be more expensive per unit than 5 designs x 100 pcs each, even at the same total pieces.
- Repeat orders: once jigs and samples are set, repeat runs usually quote slightly sharper FOB, all else equal.
6. Packing specification
- Nesting / bulk packing (multiple shades stacked) is most efficient for FOB and freight.
- Individual inner boxes add carton and labor cost and can reduce container utilization.
- Retail-ready packaging (printed boxes, labels) adds cost but may be justified for DTC brands.
Typical MOQs and minimum order value
Because we coordinate multiple workshops and exporters, MOQs are usually framed as a combination of per-design minimums and an overall minimum order value (MOV).
- Per-design MOQ (pendant shades)
- Often in the range of 30–50 pcs per size / design for standard pendants; some statement or complex weaves may require 10–20 pcs minimum due to size and capacity limits.
- Mixed order minimum
- We can usually mix several designs and sizes in one shipment, as long as the overall order reaches the target MOV.
- Minimum order value (MOV)
- Indicative MOV for consolidated rattan lighting shipments sits roughly between US$1,000 and US$3,000 FOB, depending on product mix, workshop and exporter.
This MOV range is indicative 2024–2025 and confirmed by quote once we know your assortment. Very small trial orders below the MOV may be routed as sample orders with different pricing and payment terms.
Deposits, payment terms and RFQ process
Typical deposits
For new buyers and custom work, workshops and exporters we work with normally request:
- 30–50% deposit to start production (after sample approval)
- Balance before shipment, against final packing list / photos, or CAD/TT before release of documents
The exact percentage depends on relationship, scale and exporter policy. For very large or long-running programs, alternative terms may be negotiable directly with the exporter.
How to request an accurate FOB quote (RFQ)
To move from the ranges above to a firm FOB, we need clear specs:
- Reference photos or drawings (including any brand or Pinterest inspiration)
- Approximate dimensions (diameter and height, or width/depth/height)
- Weave type and finish preference (e.g. open lattice, tight basket, natural / smoked / painted)
- Target quantity per design / size and total pieces
- Packing preference (nested bulk vs individual boxes)
- Destination market (for wiring / labelling discussion)
You can send this via email or WhatsApp; we’ll usually revert with clarifying questions and an indicative FOB range first, then refine after sampling. To start a project, plan your trip through the sourcing process with us — including WhatsApp-based planning if that’s faster for your team.
Lead times and production capacity
Standard lead time windows
Indicative lead times for rattan lamp bulk orders:
- Sampling: roughly 3–6 weeks from brief confirmation, depending on complexity and current queue.
- Production: for regular orders, around 6–12 weeks after deposit and final sample sign-off.
- Peak seasons: pre-holiday and project deadlines can extend timelines; early booking helps.
These are working estimates; final timings are agreed case by case with the exporter producing your order.
Volume and container planning
Container utilization depends heavily on lamp size, shape and packing method. As broad, non-binding planning guides:
- Small and medium pendants (nested, bulk packed) – buyers often target hundreds to low thousands of units in a 20’ or 40’ container when mixed with other décor.
- Large and statement pendants – because of air volume, you may only fit dozens to low hundreds of XL shades per container if not tightly nested.
For each confirmed range, we can model estimated container counts once we have actual dimensions and packing spec. You can then decide how many SKUs to launch per shipment and how to balance your assortment.
Export packaging, fumigation and moisture control
Moisture and mould risk: honest view
Rattan is a natural fibre and remains sensitive to moisture during and after transit. The reality for importers:
- If drying and packing are poor, mould can develop during long sea freight or storage.
- Even with good controls, product needs to acclimatise in your warehouse before final QC and dispatch.
Our typical measures, coordinated with workshops and exporters, include:
- Proper drying after weaving and after any finishing
- Anti-mould spray or treatment where specified
- Use of desiccant and/or anti-mould inserts in cartons
- Palletisation and container loading designed to avoid water ingress
We recommend your side also has a clear protocol for receiving natural fibre goods (checking for condensation, unpacking and airing when needed).
Fumigation, ISPM-15 and phytosanitary documents
Exporters shipping rattan lamps from Indonesia are typically familiar with:
- ISPM-15 compliant pallets for wood packaging
- Fumigation certificates where required by destination
- Phytosanitary certificates when your customs broker or authority requests them for plant-derived products
These requirements vary by country and are confirmed with your freight forwarder or customs broker. We coordinate the product side (material description, HS guidance, packing lists) and the exporter handles the formal fumigation and documentation.
HS codes and import context (US, EU, Australia)
Typical HS headings for rattan lamps
Importers commonly use HS headings under “lighting fittings” or “baskets / wickerwork” depending on construction and national classification rules. Because classification can be interpreted differently by customs, you or your broker have the final responsibility for HS coding in your market.
We usually provide a suggested HS code and material breakdown on pro forma and commercial invoices based on product design (shade-only vs complete lamp, mixed materials), but you should confirm with your customs broker for the US, EU or Australia.
US import context
- The US generally accepts rattan as a non-CITES natural material; duties and any additional tariffs depend on HS code and trade status.
- For wired products, local UL or equivalent verification is on the buyer; many US clients prefer shade-only and add UL-listed kits domestically.
EU import context
- EU buyers often request CE-compliant wiring where complete fixtures are imported. Exporters we work with can supply EU-style E27 sets declared to meet CE requirements, but you remain responsible for conformity assessment and documentation in your country.
- Market Surveillance authorities in the EU focus on safe electrics and accurate labelling; some importers also require REACH-related declarations for coatings and finishes.
Australian import context
- Quarantine and biosecurity checks are strict. Clear material description, fumigation certificates and clean packing help smooth inspection.
- Many Australian buyers also opt for shade-only and wire locally under their own RCM / electrical approvals framework.
Wiring, sockets and certification: what we do and don’t claim
Shade-only vs wired lamps
We can export:
- Shades only (no electrics) – most straightforward for global distribution, especially US, UK, AU.
- Shades with basic wiring sets – more typical for EU-focused importers and some hospitality projects.
Standard electrics we can support
For wired options, workshops and exporters we coordinate with typically offer:
- E27 lamp holders (common across EU and many markets)
- 220–240V sets as standard, usually with inline switch for table / floor lamps
- Basic ceiling canopies for pendants where specified
Certification responsibilities
- We do not claim blanket UL, UKCA or other market-wide certifications for all products.
- CE-compliant wiring can be provided for EU-focused ranges, but final conformity, testing and documentation in your country remain your responsibility.
- For US, UK, AU and other markets, many buyers prefer either:
- Shade-only, wired locally using pre-certified kits, or
- Third-party testing of supplied wired samples in their own labs or with test houses.
This approach avoids overpromising and ensures you retain control over safety and compliance in your jurisdiction.
Handmade characteristics: tolerances and color variation
Dimensional tolerances
All our rattan lamp shades are handwoven in small workshops. As a result, size tolerances apply:
- For larger shades, a variation of approximately ±1–3 cm in diameter or height is normal.
- Smaller shades usually show less variance, but they are not machine-perfect.
For brand and project buyers, we recommend specifying acceptable tolerance windows up front, especially where shades must fit into fixed joinery or clusters.
Color and surface variance
- Natural rattan will show variations in tone from piece to piece and within the same lamp.
- Smoked or sun-aged finishes can vary slightly between batches due to weather and raw material.
- Painted finishes are more uniform but still applied by hand, so micro-variations and brush or spray texture exist.
We document finishes in photography and samples before bulk so you can set correct expectations with your customers.
Rattan origin, legality and sustainability claims
CITES and rattan
Rattan species used in Indonesian lamp production are generally not listed under CITES. That means there is no standard CITES permit requirement for our typical rattan lamp exports. However, national harvesting regulations and forest management rules still apply upstream.
What we can honestly say about sustainability
- Rattan is a renewable natural material harvested from tropical forests and plantations.
- Our products are made in Bali and Java village workshops, supporting artisan livelihoods through export orders.
- We do not claim “certified sustainable”, FSC or PEFC unless a specific material batch and product can be documented as such for your order.
- We avoid broad green marketing statements and focus on traceable facts: material type, processing, transport and workshop conditions.
Practical costing examples (how importers use the ranges)
Example 1: Café pendant program
A small café chain wants 3 sizes of a simple open-weave dome shade (Ø28, 38, 48 cm) in natural finish:
- Order: 60 / 80 / 60 pcs per size, total 200 pendants
- Finish: natural + clear coat, nested packing
Expected FOB brackets might look like:
- Small (Ø28): in the small range, say US$9–12 FOB
- Medium (Ø38): in the medium range, say US$14–18 FOB
- Large (Ø48): in the large range, say US$23–32 FOB
This gives the buyer a quick feel for total FOB budget before moving to formal RFQ.
Example 2: Retail brand feature collection
A homewares retailer plans a capsule collection of more complex weaves and some XL “hero” pieces:
- 6 SKUs: 3 medium drums with tighter weave, 2 large ovals, 1 XL statement piece
- Quantities: 50 pcs per SKU, total 300 pcs
- Finish: mix of natural and hand-painted black
Expect FOBs leaning toward the upper half of the medium and large ranges (denser weave + painted), with the XL statement potentially around US$80–120 FOB depending on exact size and finishing. This gives the buyer enough information to map out RRP and margins while specifying details for sampling.

FAQs on rattan lamp wholesale price
What is the typical FOB price for a medium rattan pendant shade?
A medium rattan pendant (around Ø30–40 cm) usually falls in the US$12–25 FOB Indonesia range for 2024–2025, shade-only, depending on weave density, finish and quantity. Final pricing is always confirmed by quote against your exact spec.
Why is there such a wide range in rattan lamp wholesale price?
The range exists because size, weave complexity, rattan grade, finish, packing and volume all have major impact on labour and material cost. A small open-weave shade in natural finish is much faster and lighter than a large, tight-weave, painted statement piece, so they cannot share the same price band.
What deposit do I need to pay to start production?
Most exporters we work with require a 30–50% deposit after sample approval to start production, with the balance payable before shipment. The exact percentage and payment method are confirmed in your pro forma invoice.
Is there a minimum order value for rattan lamp bulk orders?
Yes. Indicatively, combined rattan lighting orders usually need to reach around US$1,000–3,000 FOB as a minimum order value, depending on exporter and product mix. Within that, individual designs have their own per-SKU MOQs.
How do retail prices relate to these wholesale FOB ranges?
Retail prices must cover FOB, international freight, import charges, warehousing, local delivery, overhead and margin. As a result, it’s common to see retail RRPs at several times the FOB cost. The exact multiple depends on your channel and cost structure; our role is to keep the FOB side transparent so you can model your own pricing.
