Comprised of a complex combination of a bamboo skeleton and washi paper covering, the Vitra Akari 23A Suspension Light takes inspiration from the rich heritage of Japanese paper lantern culture. Isamu Noguchi was drawn to the Japanese province of Gifu for the production of the Vitra Akari 23A Suspension Light, with the area synonymous with the traditional manufacture of the paper lantern.
At 70cm tall, the 23A stands as one of the tallest pendant-style light fittings in the whole Akari range, and is certain to make an impressive addition to whichever space is bestowed upon with its presence.
