Abstract:
The present invention provides a planar light source and an illumination apparatus which have higher design property than that of conventional ones. The planar light source includes: a planar light emitting panel which has a light emitting surface; and a decorative member which covers the light emitting surface of the planar light emitting panel. A light emitting region which emits light when the planar light source is turned on and a non-light-emitting frame region which surrounds the light emitting region are provided on the light emitting surface. The decorative member has a pattern forming section. The pattern forming section includes a frame shielding section which covers entirety of the frame region in the front view, and a light-emission shielding section which extends from the frame shielding section so as to divide the light emitting region into a plurality of regions.

Claim (Index 5):
The planar light source according to  claim 1 , wherein the pattern forming section has at least two of the light-emission shielding sections having an identical width, the at least two of the light-emission shielding sections dividing the light emitting region into at least three regions in a front view.
