Floor Lamp Made of Bamboo and Washi Paper

The Akari 13A floor lamp by Isamu Noguchi for Vitra is a simple and timeless piece. Crafted from bamboo and washi paper, the lamp has a distinctive Far Eastern style. The white, sturdy paper softens the light and diffuses it gently and evenly. The lamp is an eye-catcher in any room and, thanks to its simple design, blends perfectly into any setting. Isamu Noguchi has designed more than 100 Akari lamps since 1951. A visit to Japan provided the inspiration for these designer lamps.
