Details

Handcrafted from translucent washi paper made from the inner bark of the mulberry tree, this Akari pendant casts a warm, diffused glow unlike any other material. Each piece is a light sculpture — organic, quietly luminous, and made entirely by hand.

The light of Akari has often been compared to sunlight filtered through traditional paper doors — these sculptures give off a warm glow and a genuinely calming ambiance.

Features

  • Handcrafted washi paper: mulberry-bark paper, hand-bonded over a metal frame, so every piece carries the warmth of real hand work.
  • Warm diffused glow: translucent paper scatters light softly in every direction for a gentle, enveloping ambiance.
  • Cluster configurations: mix sizes for a layered, multi-pendant installation — from a simple duo to a group of five.

Handcrafted by nature — glue traces are normal

Each shade is hand-bonded using paper and glue. Minor glue traces along the edges of the shade are a natural result of this handcraft process and are not a quality defect.

Bulb & light source

The Akari takes a standard E26 (or E27) base. We strongly recommend a warm Edison-style filament bulb (2200–2700K) — the amber glow through translucent washi paper beautifully recreates the quality of candlelight, or sunlight through a traditional shoji screen. LED bulbs work well too. Bulb not included.

Frequently asked questions

What is this lamp made from?
Handcrafted from translucent washi paper made from the inner bark of the mulberry tree — the same traditional material used in Japanese shoji screens and paper lanterns. The paper is hand-bonded over a metal wire frame.

Why are there glue traces on the shade?
The shade is assembled by hand using paper and glue. Minor glue traces along the edges are a normal characteristic of this handcraft process, not a defect.

What sizes are available?
Three individual sizes — 26A (Dia. 17.7″), 21A (25.6″), and 15A (34.6″) — plus cluster configurations pairing two, three, or five pendants at graduated heights.

What bulb is recommended?
A warm Edison-style filament bulb (2200–2700K) — the amber glow through washi paper is exceptionally warm, like candlelight or sunlight through a shoji screen. E26 or E27 base. Bulb not included.

How long is the cable?
500 cm (197″) — an extra-long cable suited to double-height or lofted ceilings. It can be shortened at installation, and custom extensions are available on request.

I like this lamp, the lighting is very beautiful out of the box, the quality and workmanship are very solid and exquisite, the material of the lamp is very thick, after installation, I tried the lighting effect to be bright and not dazzling. Overall it feels good, it's worth buying
