The Durian Table Lamp from Eangee Home Design features a unique shade that is crafted from fibers picked from the durian fruit tree. Durian fruit's distinctive taste and smell usually is not appreciated by westerners, but is a very important domestic fruit in many Asian countries. The fibers from this fruit are stained and inlaid on a heat-resistant lamp backing, giving the shade bold color and unique texture.
The outer lampshade of the Durian Floor Lamp is made of nito vine. Nito is a type of climbing fern, which grows over shrubs and high into trees, and is commonly found in low-to-medium altitudes. The frame is constructed from wrought iron, which makes the lamp strong and durable. It is then powder-coated in order to ensure longevity of its color. Requires one 40-watt medium base bulb, and energy-efficient, compact florescent bulbs are highly recommended.
