In this age surrounded by electronic screens, light is no longer merely for illuminating darkness, but for comforting the soul. When you enter a room, the soft light emitted by an Akari Xuan Paper Lamp, like the first rays of the winter sun, instantly melts away all coldness.
Today, we will take you on a journey to explore the Xuan Paper Series Lamps and discover the "art of light."
01. This lamp is a sculpture of light and shadow.
Imagine night falling, you turn off the glaring chandelier, and gently flick the switch on that paper-like lamp.
The once monotonous white wall is instantly transformed by the texture of the paper, the entire space seemingly enveloped in a light, ethereal veil. It sells an atmosphere called "tranquility." A lamp shouldn't just be an appliance; it's a sculpture of light.
- Design Concept: Combining the fragility of "paper" with the intangible nature of "light" to create a weight imbued with vitality.
- Visual Experience: Softening shadows and filtering light to a silky smoothness, possessing a powerful healing quality.
02. Craftsmanship and Materials: A Breathable Experience at Your Fingertips
Selected Premium Washi Paper: Unlike ordinary office paper, this is made from mulberry wood washi paper. This paper contains long fibers, making it both strong and breathable. Through the tiny pores on the paper's surface, light undergoes countless diffuse reflections, completely eliminating the glare of direct light.
03. Space Application: A Soulmate from Bedroom to Study
Material Characteristics: Lightness and Purity
Xuan paper, as light as a feather, creates a sense of "floating" when hung from the ceiling.
Recommended Application Spaces:
- Bedroom (Warm Retreat): The natural color of Xuan paper can reduce dopamine secretion, helping you fall asleep quickly.
- Corner Aesthetics (Reading Space): The height of the floor lamp perfectly matches the sofa height, providing you with a sanctuary for contemplation.
Hanging Methods:
- Single Focus: Suitable directly above the dining table, focusing on the colors of the food.
- High and Low Combinations: Hanging lamps of different shapes at varying heights creates a modern design aesthetic.

05. All Your Questions Are Answered (Q&A)
Q: Are Xuan paper lamps difficult to maintain? Will they yellow?
A: Traditional washi paper has excellent anti-aging properties. Daily cleaning only requires a light dusting. Over time, the washi paper will darken slightly, but this is precisely the "traces of time" in aesthetics, making the light and shadow appear richer and more mellow.
Q: Are Xuan paper series suitable for modern interior design styles?
A: Absolutely. It is the core essence of the current "wabi-sabi" style. Even in a minimalist modern room with black, white, and gray tones, a Xuan paper lamp can instantly neutralize the coldness of the space.
Q: What color temperature should I choose for the bulb?
A: We strongly recommend using a warm yellow bulb with a color temperature of 2700K - 3000K. This maximizes the texture of the Xuan paper fibers, simulating natural light at dusk.
Q: Is Xuan paper flammable? Is it safe to place indoors?
A: This is a primary concern for many customers. In fact, high-quality Xuan paper uses Mino washi paper that undergoes a special process, giving it a certain degree of heat resistance.
Q: Will this lamp mold in humid environments (such as bathrooms or during the rainy season in southern China)?
A: Due to the extremely high hygroscopicity and breathability of washi paper, we do not recommend installing it in bathrooms or on unclosed balconies. However, in normal indoor living environments, as long as the room is well-ventilated, the heat generated by the lamp is sufficient to dissipate the trace moisture in the fibers, preventing mold growth.
