JAPAN DESIGN LIGHTING & INTERIORThe KOTORI HG Stand-alone floor light is made on
the same craftmanship as of Kyoto-style wagasa,

the Japanese traditional umbrellas. The lighting ischaracterized by a delicate bamboo-made structure,

and a soft and subtle light coming through the washi
paper lampshade. It reminds when the sunlightshines through an opened wagasa umbrella, andreveals the details and contrast of the bamboo andthe washi paper. The simple beauty of the lamp

brings a timeless and universal beauty not only to a
Japanese room, but also to a contemporary space.

Using the traditional technique of the wagasa

making, the lampshade can be folded in a compact

way just like a Japanese umbrella. You will enjoy theelaborate opening and closing structure and the way
the lampshade just "spreads out".

Materials & Techniques
Wood

Japanese woodworking crafts include sashi-mono, cabinetry, hikimono & kurimono, turnery,and magemono, bent wood.
