Product details
The lamp gives a soft light and creates a warm, cozy atmosphere in your room.
The wall lamp provides a pleasant light both upwards, downwards and between the gaps in the hand-braided sedge.
Each lamp is unique since it is made of sedge with natural color variations and is hand-braided by skilled craftspeople.
Sedge is a material with natural color variations which are affected by where and when the plant grows and the prevailing weather conditions when the plant is harvested.

Material
What is sedge (or seagrass)?
Sedge (or seagrass) grows naturally in South-East Asian coastal areas. For our products, we mainly use cultivated sedge from field areas that have previously been flooded by the sea, making them unsuitable for rice cultivation. Sedge grows well in salty soils and even helps cleanse them. After harvest, the plant is left to dry in the sun making it a hardwearing fiber ideal for weaving or braiding products with beautiful color variations, like baskets and mats.

"MÅNALG is one of several wall lamps that I’ve designed for IKEA. This time my task was to find out how best to use natural fibers in a lamp to create a decorative shape and a beautiful, atmospheric light. Sedge is a fantastic natural material with a textile feel. I hope that the hand-braided structure with different layers and directions will spread both light and coziness in your home."
