Culmo Wall Sconce

Culmo — Wall Sconce

Designed by Bill Parry for Rattanology

The Culmo takes its name from the culm — the bamboo stem that grows between nodes, silent and purposeful. Where others sand the nodes away, we build around them. Each one is a fingerprint of the plant’s growth: where it bent, how it reached, what it became.

Details

• Bamboo node detailing — the natural joints celebrated, not concealed; each piece its own distinct character
• Downward ambient lighting — a warm, focused glow that pools against the wall
• Mid-century modern silhouette — timeless form, contemporary and classic interiors
• Hardwired installation — clean, cable-free finish
• E14 compatible fitting

The Making

Each Culmo is handcrafted in the Philippines — the bamboo selected for the quality and character of its nodes, shaped and finished by hand. Every node left intact. A deliberate choice that makes each sconce unrepeatable. Each piece ships with a handwritten Certificate of Making.

Rattanology is a UK design studio based in Oxford, partnering with the men and women who make it to create premium rattan lighting and furniture with intention and integrity.
