Story
A modern take on the rice paper lamp
Puff Lamp honors one of the oldest traditions of lamp making in Asia, where rice paper lampshades have been used for centuries. A trip to Japan sparked the collection for Saskia Huebner, who saw endless variations of the rice paper lamp there.
Voluminous but light
Rice paper gives the shade immense volume without a heavy design, and it gently shields the light source so that the light is soft and natural and warm. The Bubble shape resembles a little, joyous character.
