The Cloud pendant lampshade is all about details. Gentle wavy lines give its clean oval form an organic warmth and its white Mino washi paper is rubbed for a soft finish that filters light into a glow. Look closely to see the fibres of Japanese washi paper, the natural beauty of a centuries-old process. The lines also form a chochin-style lantern frame that allows Cloud to be flattened for storage.

Mino washi is famed for its durability and has been used for shoji sliding doors, uchiwa fans, parasols and chochin lanterns for over a millennia. We love how Saiko Design combines Mino washi and traditional lantern-making to create something so contemporary.

Based in Gifu, Saiko Design brings together the traditional crafts of Mino washi paper and Japanese lanterns to create beautiful minimalist lampshades. They collaborate with local craftspeople who continue to use techniques that date back more than 1,300 years to produce shades featuring subtle textures, delicate patterns and vibrant colors. The washi is made using Nasu mulberry from Ibaraki Prefecture and water from Mino’s Itadori River, frames are constructed using chochin lantern techniques and patterns are inspired by traditional Japanese motifs. Each work is also designed to enhance the beauty of washi with light.
