Japanese Wabi-Sabi Lamp
DESCRIPTION
The Japanese Wabi-Sabi Lamp is inspired by Isamu Noguchi’s iconic “Akari” lamps, bringing lightness, serenity, and the harmony of wabi-sabi to contemporary spaces. A sculptural balance between simplicity, imperfection, and inner calm.
Why choose this piece?
- Authentic Wabi-Sabi aesthetic: celebrates the imperfect, the organic, and the transient — values rooted in Japanese Zen philosophy that emphasize balance and natural beauty.
- Soft and meditative lighting: the layered rice-paper structure diffuses the light gently, evoking Noguchi’s famous “moonlight.”
- Sculptural integrity: a discreet metal frame preserves the form and harmony of the paper, maintaining elegance even when the light is off.
- Lightweight and foldable: easy to assemble, store, and transport — ideal for flexible and minimalist environments.
- Ready to illuminate: includes an E27 LED bulb (warm tone) and is compatible with automatic dual voltage (90–260V).
