Andon Triangle Paper Lamp

On our most recent visit to Japan, we had the pleasure of meeting the artisan behind Asano's gorgeous paper lamps. As a certified Master of Traditional Crafts, she had been perfecting her art form for over 20 years. Each lamp is handcrafted in their Gifu warehouse with incredible skill and dedication. Carrying on traditional crafting techniques, every Asano lantern is a modern embodiment of the traditional Japanese lamp.

The Andon Triangle was design in collaboration with Daisaku Choh, known for his architectural and furniture design. His work contributed to the furniture design of the International House of Japan.
