How does the branch lamp mount?
It mounts to a standard wall box, or hangs on a discreet cord to a nearby outlet — the listing says which. The bracket and hardware for your piece are included, and it arrives ready to hang, not as a bag of parts.
Is it hardwired or plug-in, and who should install it?
The listing states which, and it is confirmed before shipping; the wiring follows US standards, run lit on the bench before crating so it ships proven, not presumed. For a hardwired piece, a licensed electrician is the safe way to connect it to the wall box; a plug-in version reaches an outlet on its cord.
What bulb does it take?
It ships fully wired with the bulb noted on the listing included. An LED of the same fitting drops in and runs cool — gentle on the teak around each socket — and stays dim enough for a nursery, warm enough for a hallway.
Can the spread be adjusted to my wall?
Yes — the spread and orientation are set when you order, because each lamp is built after you do: wider over a headboard, taller for a stair landing. Send the wall's measurements and we will build the reach to them.
Will the thin branches warp or crack over time?
Thin teak is where rushed drying shows itself — a limb still holding moisture will twist once the furnace runs. Before shaping, every board is hand-picked by selectors with thirty years at the lumber stacks, then kiln-dried for twenty days at closely held temperature, which drives the moisture out and settles any insects and their eggs. The wood has finished moving before it is cut, so a limb keeps its reach. Mount it a couple of feet from a heat vent and it holds.
How does it ship?
Every lamp is made to order and packed in a foam-fitted box with each limb cradled separately. Tracking is sent the day it ships; unpack over a soft surface, check every tip before the box goes out, and if anything arrives damaged we make it right.
