Japanese-style paper table lantern (Kozoshigure,Small) Made in Japan

Introducing the “first of its kind” Japanese-style paper table lantern that beautifully embodies the essence of traditional Japanese culture. Handcrafted from Karasuyama washi paper, a revered art form from Tochigi Prefecture, and paired with Oya stone, a local specialty, this lantern represents the culmination of centuries-old craftsmanship. Created by "Wataya," a company established in 1800 during the Edo period, the lantern blends the delicate beauty of Karasuyama washi with the distinctive texture of Oya stone, famously admired by architect Frank Lloyd Wright. These elements come together to form a unique and innovative expression of Japan's rich cultural heritage.
