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.
Rattan table lamps wholesale means bulk supply of handwoven rattan-shade lamps on a fixed base, priced and packed for export. At Bali Rattan Lamps we develop, source and ship woven table lamps in volume from Bali and Java, with transparent FOB ranges, MOQs and export-ready specs for lighting brands, retailers and hospitality projects.
Rattan Table Lamps Wholesale from Bali & Java
Rattan table lamps are one of the most reliable categories in natural-fiber lighting: compact, giftable, easy to ship, and easy for your customers to place on a bedside, console or desk. We focus on:
– Handwoven rattan shades in classic and contemporary shapes
– Bases in rattan, wood or metal, paired to the shade
– EU-ready E27 wiring at 220–240V, or shade-only for local wiring
– Export packing that protects natural fiber through ocean freight
All weaving is done in village workshops in Bali and Java (primarily the Cirebon region), with design, finishing, QC and export coordination handled from Bali. Raw rattan is sourced from Kalimantan and Sulawesi via licensed traders.
We are a B2B desk only: wholesaling, OEM and private label for importers, brands, retailers and project specifiers. No retail, no dropship.
Handwoven Rattan Table Lamp Styles We Supply
1. Bedside & Small Desk Rattan Table Lamps
These are your volume movers: compact, giftable, and easy to merchandize in pairs.
Typical specs (indicative ranges, 2024–2025):
– Total height: 30–50 cm
– Shade diameter: 18–30 cm
– Shade height: 16–25 cm
– Base: turned wood, powder-coated metal, or rattan-wrapped frame
– Weave: semi-open or tight, depending on light effect required
Common use: bedside rattan lamp export (hotels, resorts, villa projects, retail).
Popular constructions:
– **Drum shade on wood base**
– Tight 2/2 plain weave or wrapped “French cane” look
– Balinese carpenters turn the base from local hardwoods (often teak or mahogany, legality-documented but not necessarily FSC-certified)
– Shade woven in Java, assembled and wired in Bali
– **Rounded “egg” or “onion” shade on simple metal base**
– Open diagonal weave to throw patterned light
– Metal base keeps the silhouette minimal; rattan is the feature
– Frequently ordered as “shade-only” for EU and US brands to mount on their own bases
2. Medium Living Room & Console Table Lamps
These pieces work both as task and accent lighting.
Typical specs:
– Total height: 50–70 cm
– Shade diameter: 28–40 cm
– Shade height: 22–30 cm
Popular styles:
– **Wide drum with tight wicker**
– 3–4 mm peeled rattan core, plain or chevron weave
– Light diffusion is soft and warm, less “patterned” on walls
– Often stained in walnut or blackwash
– **Tall cone / tapered cylinder**
– Slightly open vertical or lattice weave
– Good for casting a gentle pattern around a seating area
– Bases: heavier wood or weighted metal to avoid toppling
3. Sculptural & Oversized Rattan Table Lamps
Larger rattan table lamps can become statement pieces for lobbies, villas and large retail spaces.
Typical specs:
– Total height: 70–100 cm
– Shade diameter: 35–50 cm
Example constructions:
– **Double-layer shade on rattan column base**
– Inner tight weave, outer open minimalist cage
– Bali workshops assemble the structure; Java weavers build both layers
– More fragile; requires stronger packing and more container space
– **Sculpted organic forms**
– Free-form curves built over a welded metal armature
– Thicker kubu grey rattan or natural rattan with whitewash
– Often ordered OEM from client sketches or 3D files
For these sizes we typically recommend lower case-pack quantities and careful carton marking, as they consume more cubic meters per unit.
4. Shades-Only for Your Existing Bases
Many buyers use our weaving ecosystem purely for **rattan shades without bases or electrics**. This often optimizes:
– Import classification (home décor vs electrical) in some markets
– Wiring certification handled locally (UL, UKCA, etc.)
– Flexibility: one shade across multiple base SKUs
Shade-only specs:
– Spider / ring fittings sized for E27 or your requested harp/holder
– Neck diameters and heights drawn to your technical sheet
– Packed nested by size where geometry allows
Weaving Details: How the Shades Are Actually Made
Materials: Rattan Types & Origins
We primarily use:
– **Natural peeled rattan** (core and fitrit)
– Sourced from Kalimantan and Sulawesi via licensed traders
– Split and processed in Java; final selection and staining near weaving centers
– **Kubu grey rattan**
– Natural rattan soaked in clay, then dried to a grey tone
– Slight color variation lot-to-lot is normal
– **Optional accents**
– Thin bamboo strip, seagrass cord, cotton rope occasionally added, but table lamps are usually 80–100% rattan for strength.
Rattan species we use for lighting are generally **not CITES-listed**, so they are exportable under standard Indonesian regulations. Local harvest and transport rules still apply; we work only with traders who can show appropriate documentation for export.
We do not call any rattan “certified sustainable” unless it carries verifiable FSC/PEFC documentation from the supplier. Rattan is fast-regrowing and supports village livelihoods, but we don’t over-claim.
Weave Types on Table Lamp Shades
Most wholesale rattan table lamp orders fall into a few practical weave types:
– **Open lattice / cross weave**
– Strips: 3–5 mm
– Airy, visible bulb, strong shadow play
– Lower material cost, slightly faster weaving
– **Semi-open diagonal weave**
– Strips: 2.5–4 mm
– Light patterns, but bulb less exposed than full lattice
– Good balance between atmosphere and glare control
– **Tight wicker (plain or twill)**
– Strips: 2–3 mm
– Diffuses light; bulb mostly hidden
– More hours per piece = higher FOB range
Shade frames are bent from rattan pole or mild steel wire, jigged to keep shape consistency. Java (Cirebon region) handles the bulk weaving; Bali workshops tend to focus on more complex or smaller-batch custom pieces.
Finishes & Color Options
Standard finishes (availability depends on current workshop setup):
– **Natural clear-coated**
– Clear water-based topcoat protects against dust and mild staining
– Color: light honey; can deepen slightly with age and exposure
– **Kubu grey**
– Earthy grey tone from the clay process itself
– Usually left uncoated or with a very light matte sealer
– **Lightwash / whitewash**
– Pigment wash, then wipe-back to expose rattan grain
– Slight variance piece to piece is normal
– **Mid / dark stain**
– Water-based stain + sealer
– Colors: teak, walnut, espresso, charcoal/blackwash
We avoid describing any coating as “outdoor proof” for table lamps. These are indoor products unless specifically engineered otherwise and quoted as such.
Sizes, Bases & Wiring: What You Can Specify
Common Table Lamp Sizes (Total Height)
- Small bedside: 30–45 cm
- Medium living: 45–60 cm
- Large statement: 60–90 cm
Size tolerance on handwoven shades: **approx. ±1–3 cm** on diameter and height, especially on larger organic forms. Straight cylindrical forms can be held more tightly, but we never promise machine-level tolerances.
Base Options
We typically combine our woven shades with:
– **Solid wood bases**
– Turned or block shapes
– Heavier, stable; can be clear, stained, or painted
– Cable exit via drilled vertical channel
– **Metal bases**
– Round or square plate with vertical tube
– Powder-coated black/white/sand; other RAL by quote
– Slender look, good for contemporary ranges
– **Rattan-wrapped bases**
– Wood or metal core wrapped with rattan or kubu
– Visually continuous with the shade
– Slightly more work in finishing and QC
You can order:
– Shade + base fully assembled
– Shades only
– Bases only (for some OEM arrangements)
We usually advise new buyers to start with **shades-only samples**, then move to complete lamps once your local wiring and certification requirements are locked.
Wiring & Certification (CE, UL, UKCA)
Standard export wiring specs we can provide:
– **Voltage:** 220–240V
– **Lampholder:** E27, typically plastic or ceramic depending on your brief
– **Cable:** 2-core or 3-core with earth, PVC or textile braided
– **Plug:** Schuko or other EU-type by arrangement
We can assemble to be **CE-compliant for EU** markets (components and wiring layout that conform to accepted EU practice). However:
– We do **not** hold a blanket CE, UL or UKCA certification for all models.
– For the **EU**, some clients self-declare conformity using our build specs and component datasheets.
– For the **US/Canada (UL/ETL)** and **UK (UKCA)**, most clients:
– Import either shades-only, or
– Import unwired bases and do final assembly and certification locally, or
– Have a third-party lab test specific models.
We will not state “UL-approved” or “UKCA-certified” for a lamp unless you have done that work and we are reproducing your exact, tested build under controlled conditions.
Shade-only exports completely avoid this issue: your own base and wiring control certification in your market.
Indicative FOB Price Ranges & MOQs (2024–2025)
All pricing below is **indicative 2024–2025, FOB Indonesia, by quote, last verified June 2026**. Final pricing depends on design complexity, finishes, materials, packing method, and order mix.
| Item Type | Approx. Size | Indicative FOB Range* | Typical MOQ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small bedside rattan table lamp (shade + base) | H 30–45 cm | USD 11–18 / pc | 100–200 pcs / model |
| Medium living room rattan table lamp (shade + base) | H 45–60 cm | USD 15–25 / pc | 80–150 pcs / model |
| Large sculptural rattan table lamp | H 60–90 cm | USD 25–40 / pc | 50–100 pcs / model |
| Rattan table lamp shade only (small–medium) | Ø 20–35 cm | USD 6–13 / pc | 150–300 pcs / model |
| Rattan table lamp shade only (large) | Ø 35–50 cm | USD 11–22 / pc | 80–150 pcs / model |
*Indicative 2024–2025, FOB Indonesia, by quote only; subject to material, labor and exchange-rate movements.
MOQ logic:
– **Per model / color / size**: counts as a separate line.
– Mixed containers are possible, but each SKU must reach workable weaving and finishing batch sizes.
– For tight-weave, complex or heavily finished designs, MOQs sit at the upper end of each range.
For a firm quotation, send your drawings, reference photos or existing SKU specs via our RFQ channel: plan your trip (email or WhatsApp; we’ll reply with a structured costing sheet, not a one-line price).
Packing, Nesting & Container Loading for Rattan Table Lamps
Nesting & Knock-Down Options
Rattan shades are light and bulky. The only way to make ocean freight efficient is:
– **Nesting**
– Same shape, stepped sizes: we nest 3–5 shades per master carton
– Best with conical or rounded forms; drums can also nest if height allows
– **Knock-down bases**
– For some metal or wood bases we can ship in KD (stem off base, simple assembly)
– Reduces carton height and improves cube efficiency
Complete assembled table lamps require more air in each carton than shades-only. Many bulk buyers therefore:
1. Order **shades-only** ex-Indonesia.
2. Pair with locally produced or sourced bases.
3. Wire and certify in-market.
We’re comfortable working either way; our costing sheet can show you the trade-off.
Indicative Container Counts
Very rough 20’ and 40’ HC figures, assuming smart nesting and mixed sizes (actual counts depend heavily on your exact models):
- 20’ container – shades-only, small/medium table lamp shades
- Roughly 2,500–4,000 pcs.
- 40’ HC container – shades-only, small/medium table lamp shades
- Roughly 5,000–8,000 pcs.
- 20’ container – complete table lamps (small/medium)
- Roughly 900–1,600 pcs.
- 40’ HC container – complete table lamps (small/medium)
- Roughly 2,000–3,200 pcs.
For large sculptural lamps, expect far fewer units per container; we usually mock up a packing simulation based on your chosen range before you finalize POs.
Quality, Variance & Moisture Risk – The Honest Version
Handmade Variance
Every woven table lamp shade is made by hand. This carries some unavoidable variance:
– **Dimensions:** typically ±1–3 cm on diameter and height, more on organic curves
– **Color:** natural, kubu and wash finishes vary slightly between batches and even within the same batch
– **Weave tension:** minor differences in openness and pattern repeat
We mitigate this with:
– Jigs for frame bending
– Master samples in each weaving group
– Random QC checks at multiple stages
But a rattan table lamp will not have the same uniformity as an injection-moulded plastic shade. Your positioning and QC plan should embrace that.
Moisture, Mould & Transit
Natural rattan is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs and releases moisture. The key risks:
– Surface mould or spotting if packed while still damp
– Odour if shipping in humid conditions without vents
– Minor warping on very thin structural strips
Our standard mitigation:
– Sun and kiln drying before weaving where needed
– Final drying phase before packing
– Anti-mould sachets (desiccant) in cartons
– Breathable inner bags instead of full plastic sealing when appropriate
Even with these controls, importing natural rattan into high-humidity or cold–to–warm transit routes carries **some** mould risk. We recommend:
– Unpacking and acclimatising goods on arrival (24–72 hours in a dry, ventilated space)
– Wiping with a mild vinegar-based or approved mould-cleaning solution if light surface mould appears
– Avoiding long-term storage against cold external warehouse walls
We will not claim “mould-proof”; we manage risk but cannot fully remove it in a natural product shipped across oceans.
OEM, Private Label & Custom Rattan Table Lamps
OEM & Private Label Development
We regularly adapt our weaving capability to client brands. Typical OEM work includes:
– Matching your existing best-selling silhouettes in rattan
– Translating ceramic or metal lamp shapes into lighter woven forms
– Creating families (S/M/L table + floor + pendant) from one design language
Workflow:
1. **Brief & drawings** – you send files, or a target SKU and mood board.
2. **Feasibility check** – structural, weaving complexity, and FOB target check.
3. **Sampling** – 1–3 rounds to align on shape, weave, finish, and assembly.
4. **Pre-production sample** – signed off as the reference for bulk.
Customisation Options on Existing Ranges
For buyers who don’t need full OEM but want differentiation:
– Change finish (natural → kubu → whitewash → stain)
– Modify size (e.g., scale up 10–20% for larger markets)
– Swap base material or color
– Adjust weave openness for more/less light pattern
Small modifications often keep you within mid-range MOQs and modest sampling costs.
Lead Times
Indicative 2024–2025 timings (subject to season and order mix):
– **Sampling:** 3–6 weeks after brief clarification and deposit
– **Initial bulk order:** 10–14 weeks from deposit and sample approval
– **Repeat orders:** 8–12 weeks, depending on workshop load
Shipping time (ocean) to your port sits on top of this, typically 3–6 weeks for Asia-Pacific, 4–8 weeks for EU/UK/US depending on route and transshipment.
For detailed timing and a production slot estimate, use plan your trip (email or WhatsApp) and share your target delivery window and port.
How We Work: Sourcing Desk, Not a Single Factory
We coordinate a network of vetted workshops and exporters rather than presenting as a single “one-roof” factory. The structure:
– **Weaving:** village-level groups in Java (Cirebon area) and parts of Bali
– **Frames & bases:** metal workshops and carpenters close to those weaving centers
– **Finishing & QC:** Bali-based teams handling sanding, staining, coating, assembly checks
– **Export:** experienced Indonesian exporters managing documentation, fumigation where required, and container loading
This gives you:
– Flexibility on volume – from mixed LCL trial shipments to full containers
– Multiple weave skills – from simple lattice to tight decorative patterns
– Risk spread – if one village is overloaded, others can pick up simpler SKUs
We are honest about capacity: complex, tight-weave shades with heavy finishing will not scale as fast as simple open-weave lamps. We discuss this openly during the RFQ stage.
Next Steps: RFQ, Samples & WhatsApp Support
For a tailored quotation on **rattan table lamps wholesale**, we need:
– Target SKUs or reference images
– Target markets (EU/UK/US/other) and whether you need wiring or shade-only
– Estimated order quantities per model
– Preferred delivery window and destination port
Send these via our wholesale desk: plan your trip. You can include your WhatsApp number for quicker back-and-forth on specs, photos and video walk-throughs of samples.
We won’t send a generic price sheet without context; you get a specific, itemised offer built around your range and market.
What shade sizes work best for bedside vs living room?
For bedside, 30–45 cm total lamp height with a 18–28 cm diameter shade is comfortable and proportional to most nightstands. For living rooms and consoles, 45–60 cm total height and 28–40 cm diameter shades read better in the space and balance sofa and sideboard proportions.
What base options do you recommend for rattan table lamps?
For volume ranges we usually suggest solid wood or metal bases: wood for a warmer, natural look and added weight; metal for a slim, contemporary profile. Rattan-wrapped bases are visually cohesive but slightly more labour-intensive. Many buyers also take shades-only and match them with pre-existing base programs in their own assortments.
What is the FOB price range for wholesale rattan table lamps?
Indicative 2024–2025 ranges, FOB Indonesia and by quote: small bedside rattan table lamps typically land around USD 11–18 per piece, medium lamps around USD 15–25, and large sculptural pieces roughly USD 25–40. Shade-only orders usually range from about USD 6–22 depending on size and complexity. Exact pricing depends on design, finish, packing and quantity and is confirmed by individual quotation.
What are your MOQs for woven table lamps in bulk?
For most designs, expect MOQs around 100–200 pieces per model for small lamps, 80–150 pieces for medium and large lamps, and 150–300 pieces for small/medium shades-only. Each model, color and size counts as its own line. We can discuss lower starting volumes for first orders, but pricing and per-unit costs will be higher.
Can you customise designs or develop OEM rattan table lamps for our brand?
Yes. We offer both moderate customisation of existing designs (size, finish, weave openness, base type) and full OEM development from your drawings or reference samples. The typical process includes feasibility review, 1–3 sampling rounds and a signed-off pre-production sample before bulk. To start, share your brief via plan your trip and add your WhatsApp if you prefer faster technical communication.
