Fine hand-crafted Japanese Lamps |
|
All lamps are hand-made original designs. A standard model may be chosen from those displayed in the Gallery page or lamps can be custom made to order. The design, size, type of wood and paper can all be individually selected, depending on one's decor and desired effect. All lamps come with an in-line dimmer switch to control the light intensity. Lamps can also be made into hanging lamps, wall sconces or floor lamps. Custom orders may take 2-3 weeks depending on the model. Some types of wood used are: Rosewood Teak Walnut Cherry Redwood Mahogany Lace Wood Red Oak Brown Oak Red Cedar Bubinga Zebra Wood Maple Bocote Cocobolo Lapacho Quebracho Black Mesquite Honey Mesquite Cebil Brown Ebony Lignum Vitae Mara Jotoba (Brazilian cherry) A variety of papers are used to achieve the desired effect. Rice papers often have delicate hues and diffuse light very subtly. Japanese Washi & Yuzen papers are usually hand made and come in different colors and print patters. These can be very colorful, often depicting Japanese scenes. The effect on the light as it passes through the paper has a soothing meditative effect. Art papers in general can have a very distinctive effect on the light as well. No more than a 40 watt small fan light bulb is recommended. A "white" light bulb will highlight the true colors of the paper, rather than a regular yellow light bulb. Please feel free to call or e-mail to discuss this unique art form or for any specific questions you may have about any individual lamps. Payment Terms:
