The Kanso Paper Floor Light extends a right-angle iron arm from a tall vertical pole, suspending a round paper lantern shade by a cord at the end of the boom. The shade's bamboo-like rib frame is wrapped in craft cotton paper, diffusing light from a single E26 or E27 bulb into a soft, ambient glow. Standing 180cm tall on a 25cm round base, with shade sizes of 45cm, 50cm, or 55cm, this floor lamp works well beside a reading chair, in a living room corner, or in a bedroom. The angular iron arm and paper lantern shade suit Japandi and minimalist interiors looking for a sculptural floor light with an arcing silhouette. Available in a cream colorway.
One fixture size, 3 shade sizes.

Washi paper, thin wire, and a warm diffused glow — no hotspots, no glare.
A sculptural piece by day, a quiet layer of ambient light by night. One lantern is often all a room needs.
Shop the SeriesFour reasons these lanterns keep showing up in homes that take lighting seriously.
Washi paper filters light into a warm wash. No harsh hotspots, no cold edges — just gentle ambient light across the whole room.
Every shade is shaped and pressed by hand. Fiber lines, soft folds, and small irregularities you can actually see when it's lit.
Strong silhouette, light visual footprint. Real presence in a room without crowding what's already there.
Warm enough for mid-century, quiet enough for minimalist, soft enough to anchor a modern dining table.
Washi paper is thin, strong, and slightly translucent — which is exactly what a good shade needs. Light passes through the fiber instead of bouncing off it, so the glow lands soft and even. Every shade is hand-shaped over a wire frame, which means no two are identical. The small variations on the surface aren't defects — they're the difference between a handmade lantern and a printed one.
Washi, traditional Japanese paper, is crafted from the inner barks of plants like kozo, mitsumata, and gampi. The process involves carefully stripping, boiling, and pounding the fibers into pulp, which is then spread onto bamboo mesh to form delicate sheets. Known for its strength, translucency, and soft texture, washi has been a vital part of Japanese culture for centuries — seen in origami, lanterns, and sliding doors, embodying the nation's enduring artistry and grace.
These aren't fixtures you hide. They're pieces you place — and every room has a spot that opens up with one of them in it.
Hang a pendant low. The paper warms the room the moment you switch it on — the kind of light people stay under longer.
A floor lantern in the corner replaces the overhead. Walls soften, the room calms, and the last hour of the day feels slower.
Tall beside a chair, low on a side table — ambient light that fills the room without pulling attention away.
Every lantern fills a room differently. See how the light settles in, from first switch to full glow.
"Bought the floor lantern for our bedroom and it completely changed the evening vibe. We never turn the overhead on anymore. Warm, but not yellow — if that makes sense."
"I was looking for a dining pendant that didn't feel cold or too 'designer.' This one actually pulls the table together. Guests always ask where it's from."
"The paper texture is better in person than in photos — you can see the fiber when it's lit. Arrived well-packed and easy to assemble."
