Tradition+Modernity: Traditional techniques are brought into the present day as a "symphony" of healing light and shadow play. Traditional Japanese kimono patterns (created using Ise katagami stencils) are reproduced in detail in this lampshade to create a standing lantern that soothes you with its diffuse light and Japanese aromas (like incense).
Kimono fabric uses ancient Japanese patterns and motifs. These patterns have been used here for a lantern that is adapted to modern lifestyles to provide a time for tranquility and peace of mind.
Luxuriate in a space of Japanese light and scent while experiencing Japanese traditions.
