Akari 1A Table Lamp

Inspiration

This lamp began with the paper lantern — a shade you light from within rather than point at a wall. We wanted that quality on a side table: a small, softly ribbed dome that turns a single bulb into a warm, low pool of light. The curve is drawn to sit at eye level when you're seated, so the glow lands on the room and not in your face. Nothing about it demands attention; it simply makes a corner feel lived in.

Key Features

Use Case

At Ø10.2″ and 16.9″ tall it fits a nightstand, side table, console, or desk without crowding it, and the 59″ cord reaches a floor outlet from most furniture. The paper shade spreads the light wide and low, so it reads as an ambient bedside lamp or a soft corner light rather than a reading lamp — add a directed task light where you need to read. Pair the white shade with pale walls and light timber; the black reads sharper against darker rooms. Email info@docos.us for trade pricing.

Why Akari

Why the Akari Series feels different

Four reasons these lanterns keep showing up in homes that take lighting seriously.

Soft, diffused glow

Washi paper filters light into a warm wash. No harsh hotspots, no cold edges — just gentle ambient light across the whole room.

Handcrafted paper texture

Every shade is shaped and pressed by hand. Fiber lines, soft folds, and small irregularities you can actually see when it's lit.

Sculptural, nearly weightless

Strong silhouette, light visual footprint. Real presence in a room without crowding what's already there.

Styles with anything

Warm enough for mid-century, quiet enough for minimalist, soft enough to anchor a modern dining table.

Craft & Material

Paper that was made to hold light

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.

Heritage

The Art of Xuan Paper Making: A Thousand Years of Craftsmanship

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.

Room by Room

Where Akari lights belong

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.

Akari pendant above a dining table

Over the dining table

Hang a pendant low. The paper warms the room the moment you switch it on — the kind of light people stay under longer.

Akari floor lamp in a calm bedroom corner

In the bedroom

A floor lantern in the corner replaces the overhead. Walls soften, the room calms, and the last hour of the day feels slower.

Living room & reading corner

Tall beside a chair, low on a side table — ambient light that fills the room without pulling attention away.

From Owners

What owners are saying

★★★★★

"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."

Mark T.

Interior Lover · Verified

★★★★★

"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."
