Handcrafted from translucent mulberry bark paper known as washi, this suspended lighting fixture delivers a soft, evenly scattered illumination. The artisanal assembly process creates an organic, glowing focal point that brings steady warmth to residential or commercial spaces.
Construction & Craftsmanship
The shade is manually bonded onto a lightweight metal framework using traditional paper-pasting methods similar to those used in historic Japanese room dividers. Because each unit is assembled individually by hand, slight adhesive residues along the rim are standard and reflect authentic manual production rather than a manufacturer flaw.
Dimensional Options
Orderers may choose from three standalone diameters, with each fixture weighing approximately 4.4 pounds (2 kg):
- 26A model: 17.7 inches diameter × 9.8 inches height
- 21A model: 25.6 inches diameter × 11.0 inches height
- 15A model: 34.6 inches diameter × 13.8 inches height
Electrical & Lighting Details
This pendant utilizes a standard E26 or E27 socket and ships without an illumination source. To maximize the amber filtration properties of the paper, a warm vintage filament bulb rated between 2200K and 2700K is highly recommended, though efficient LED equivalents perform equally well. The unit operates on AC voltages from 110V to 240V and requires permanent hardwiring to an overhead junction box. It pairs with standard wall switches and is approved exclusively for dry indoor locations.
Each fixture includes a 197-inch (500 cm) suspension wire designed to accommodate double-height or lofted ceilings. The cord can be shortened during setup, or longer custom lengths can be requested for atriums and staircases.
Multipoint Arrangements
Grouping several pendants generates a structured, multi-tiered visual effect. Separate drop lines permit independent height adjustments for each shade. Popular setups feature a two-light combination, a three-shape graduated row, or a five-unit configuration that mixes the smallest, medium, and largest diameters.
Setup Instructions
Hiring a licensed electrician is strongly advised for overhead mounting. Support the paper edges gently during placement to avoid surface deformation. The fixture is certified for sale in North America, Europe, Australia, and Saudi Arabia regions. Cord finishes are offered in coordinating white or contrasting black tones to match existing ceiling aesthetics.
