Ok rope work done.
I needed to make a way to close the round light so I made three looped rope closers and added Wangi bamboo posts to hook onto.
This light is really easy to get into to change the light, only three loops to undo and your in.
The bottom ropes are for looks only.

It has a few tapa accents on it inside and out and comes with a chain and pulley on the end.
Will adjust the chain to the size need for the bar it goes to if instructed to do so.
C7 Christmas type light bulb and has a paper lining that lets the light filter through the many gaps in the rattan weaving and has a soft low light glow.

Never seen a light like this, it is made from an old rattan box I found long ago.

This round light reminds me of a box that a Headhunter might use to carry his prized trophy head in.

The Headhunter trophy box light.....
