Just saw this in a West Elm catalog and about flipped. This could be perfect for the living room. It is a fraction of the cost of some of the fixtures we were looking at previously but can provide the same glowing, ethereal effect. And is the right size, about 23.5" wide by 21" high. And - does not scream West Elm which, yes, I consider a plus. After reviewing last week's post about lighting, the clients had said, "What about bamboo?" I immediately liked their idea of using the material of the fixture as a way to add texture to the room, but was waiting for the right fixture to "come along." Maybe this one can do the trick? It's made from palm leaves woven over a metal frame.
