The middle section is made entirely of fabric, painted with some tapa-like designs. You hang the upper end up, and the bottom bamboo piece stretches the cloth out via gravity. I purchased two green bulbs (from the Dollar Tree!) to give some accent color. Two pictures here ... one with flash, and one without (the banana tree carving is from Bali) Vern
