The shade of the Teahouse 2-Tier Pendant is made of rattan. The ribs of the natural material are staggered top and bottom to bring the shape of the shade added interest. The metal stem in a khaki finish mimics the width of the stems for a refined feel. The designer of the tan pendant, Ian Thornton, points out that the finish on the metal reflects the warmth of the rattan when light shines through it. Adjustable from 31" to 73" with use of included chain/rod kit/cable. If your space calls for a longer drop, additional chain/rods/cable is available for purchase.
