A bamboo ceiling fan is truly beautiful in my eyes. While most of these fans aren’t made entirely of bamboo, the blades at least are. Since bamboo is such a wonderful natural resource, I always recommend people buy bamboo ceiling fan blades when possible. They are incredibly durable, lightweight, and friendly for the environment.
I have been doing some thorough research on this subject and have come across several bamboo ceiling fans that I think meet the needs of both traditional and modern homes. As I always preach on this site, the final decision should always come down to functionality over décor, but in cases like this, you can have the best of both worlds. Here are a few that I really liked:
Monte Carlo 5ML52TB Mandalay Ceiling Fan – this is a stunning fan that would look great in any beach house or a home with a more modern décor. It has a heavy duty motor that can really push some serious air around the room, and it is ideal for a medium to large size room. The downside is the price, as it will set you back around $550.
Westinghouse 72440 Oak Harbor Ceiling Fan – this is a 5 blade fan that is expertly crafted and has very sensual lines and an eye catching finish. This is an extremely big fan at 56 inches, so it can be used in a great room, family room, etc. It is an ideal centerpiece and can really take over the décor of any room.
Tommy Bahama Natural Bamboo Ceiling Fan Blades – while the ceiling fans above have blades made of bamboo, keep in mind they aren’t entirely made of bamboo and aren’t 100% natural, especially the stained finishes. These blades however are 100% bamboo and have a natural finish. If you are looking for pure bamboo blades, these are highly recommended.
