Handwoven in Malawi from natural cane, the Aura Wall Sconce is a sculptural lighting piece designed to bring warmth, texture, and a soft ambient glow into any space.
Its gentle hourglass form creates a quiet sense of balance, while the open weave allows light to filter through, casting a subtle, atmospheric pattern on the wall. The beauty lies in its imperfection — each piece is individually crafted by hand, with slight variations in the weave that reflect its artisanal origin.
Designed to sit flush against the wall, the Aura Wall Sconce works beautifully in pairs along a passage, beside a bed, or as a statement feature in a living space. Its natural tones and organic form make it equally at home in coastal settings or Karoo interiors.
Timeless, grounded, and quietly striking — a piece that brings light and soul into a room.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
All Malawi Cane products are made using natural rattan from Malawi. As with any natural product, care should be taken when exposed to the elements. Varnish or paint treatment is recommended for outdoor patio use.
Without care, and if exposed to constant direct UV rays or rain, the chairs will eventually go a silvery / grey colour and deteriorate, offering a rustic, Provençal look.
To prolong the life of your Malawi Cane pieces, we recommend:
- Regularly dusting them with a dry soft cloth.
- For spots a little harder to get to, use a soft bristle brush.
- If it’s raining, keep them undercover. It’s important to keep them dry and avoid a build- up of moisture and mildew. If they do get damp or wet, simply dry them out on a warm, sunny day when you next can.
- If there is heavy or prolonged periods of rain or humidity, we recommend bringing your pieces indoors during that time.
Please note that if a dark ‘mould’ ever forms, this is usually superficial and can be scrubbed off using a spoon of oxalic acid (available at most hardware stores) mixed in 5L of water and then rinsed.
From Malawi to the world
It takes one person one week to make a single Malawi Chair. After that the artisans use bicycles to transport the furniture to our trucks, and then to our warehouse and quality control facility in Cape Town. From there we send out containers to the world.
