Akari 15A Rice Paper Pendant Light
A Delicate Balance of Form and Light
Bring a softer, more organic character to your interior with this sculptural washi paper pendant light. A delicate wire framework supports the translucent paper shade, creating a lightweight silhouette that feels calm, refined and beautifully understated.
The paper surface gently diffuses the light source, reducing the harsh appearance of a bare bulb and creating a warm, atmospheric glow. Its simple geometry makes this Japanese-inspired pendant a natural complement to modern homes, quiet reading spaces and thoughtfully designed interiors.
Available in five individual sizes and several multi-pendant arrangements, the design can be adapted to different ceiling heights and room proportions. Style it above a dining table, in a bedroom, or as a sculptural lighting feature in an open-plan living space.
