Inspired by Japanese paper lanterns, this designer lamp is entirely handmade using traditional crafting materials from the Land of the Rising Sun. Bombori features a slatted frame made of Akita cedarwood and Mino washi paper that’s thin, translucent and handcrafted, an essential feature of Japanese interior design. Available as a pendant, floor or desk lamp, it turns light into a poem by merging strength, stability and elegance, recurring themes in Japanese narrative.
