About Washi Lamp "Sukiakari"

Its Washi is made using a special technique "Hiryu". It was created by grandfather of the present master Kazuya in the late 1920s and has been handed down through three generations.
A piece of paper is wrapped around the acrylic which protects the light bulb. Magnets are used to hold the paper.
Washi makes a beautiful contrast between the light and the shadow and creates special space to heal people.
