I'm almost done with a reproduction of Finkdaddy wall lamp. I went to Oceanic website to buy one but couldn't get to it. Plus I am very low on cashish this month due to the kitchen refacing.
Here's Finkdaddy's sweet wall lamp:

Here's my attempt at what I thing it is. It's 12" high and 11" wide.


My daughter Devyn made the macrame hemp strap to cover the top & bottom of the fasteners of the bamboo.

I had to make a cut out in the back to replace the bulbs:


Also I covered the wood with aluminum to protect from the heat of the bulbs.

The start of the wiring:

Next is the wiring to be cleaned up and the defused white covering for the front and the bamboo to be installed.
The wood I used was poplar for the back and mahogany for the top and bottom half circles. I hope to be done by Sunday. I'm putting my base kitchen cabinets and counter top back in today.
Thanks for looking!
