Features of Mulberry Paper Lighting Fixtures →

01

The Art of Soft Light: Diffused Radiance for the Space

The unique fibrous structure of mulberry paper acts as a natural "soft-light filter." It effectively screens out the harsh glare of a light source, transforming the illumination into a warm, even, and diffused glow—much like sunlight filtering through a morning mist.

02

The Pinnacle of Organic Aesthetics: Nature's Fingerprint and Texture

Mulberry paper preserves the natural distribution of plant fibers, rendering every inch of its texture a unique, naturally formed work of art. Each sheet of Xuan paper is meticulously crafted by hand. When unlit, it stands as a serene paper sculpture; when illuminated, it reveals an astonishing depth of visual layering.

03

Extreme Lightness: A Visual Experience

Xuan paper lighting fixtures evoke a visual sense of "suspension" and "airy elegance," effectively counterbalancing the visual heaviness often associated with modern furniture.

04

Handcrafted Mastery: The Warmth of Human Touch

Each sheet of Xuan paper undergoes a specific water-agitation process. This ensures that the lampshade retains exceptional resilience—remaining free of cracks or tears—even when expanding under the heat of the light source. During assembly, the paper is applied by hand, adhering each piece seamlessly and invisibly in alignment with the paper's natural grain. This meticulous process ensures that the lamp body features fluid lines and a perfectly smooth, tactile surface.

Mulberry Xuan Paper vs. Plastic / Industrial Non-Woven Fabric

A side-by-side comparison of materials

Dimension	Mulberry Xuan Paper	Plastic / Industrial Non-Woven Fabric
Light & Shadow	Warm, immersive reflection. Light passes through natural plant fibers, creating a remarkable layered mist-like glow—gentle, healing, and atmospheric.	Stark and flat. Light distribution is uniform but lifeless, often producing harsh glare and lacking spatial depth or emotional expression.
Visual Texture	Nature's "fingerprint." Preserves the irregular, layered fiber patterns of mulberry and sandalwood bark—each lamp is a singular work of textile art.	Manufactured repetition. Textures are stamped from industrial molds—uniform, lifeless, and revealing their inexpensive origins on closer inspection.
Durability	"Paper that lasts a thousand years." Exceptional resistance to aging and tearing—no fear of bulb heat, retains its original toughness and luster for years.	Prone to aging and discoloration. Yellows and deforms under prolonged heat. Even worse, may produce irreversible creases or damage during cleaning.
Tactile Experience	Naturally warm. The touch of paper carries a gentle warmth—free of static electricity, growing more lovable with the passage of time.	Cold and rigid. Typical plastic feel that easily generates static electricity and attracts dust—gradually becoming visually rougher with use.
Aesthetic Depth	Carries Zen and tranquility. A perfect match for Japandi and Wabi-Sabi styles—an elevating, soulful object that gives a space its character.	A functional consumable. A budget material that performs basic illumination only—incapable of becoming the visual center or art piece of a room.

Sculptural paper floor, table and pendant lamps glowing softly in a gallery-style room.

Light, Softened by Paper

Sculptural floor, table and pendant lamps that turn warm light into a soft, even glow. Their organic shapes bring a calm, gallery-like presence to modern rooms.

Shop the Paper Series Browse all collections

Shaped from Paper and Light

Each shade stretches a light paper skin over a fine iron wire frame. The result is a lamp that feels almost weightless, lets light pass through and blends it into a warm, even glow, and folds away when you need it to.

High Translucency, Blended Light

The thin paper lets plenty of light pass through, then blends it into one soft, even glow without harsh glare.
Folds Flat, Opens Easily

The ribbed structure collapses flat for compact shipping and storage, then opens back into its full shape when you are ready to hang it.
Clean, Careful Seams

Paper panels are glued along the ribs and pressed into neat seams, keeping the surface smooth so light passes through evenly.

Shade: Paper
Frame: Iron wire
Structure: Collapsible
Light: Soft and diffused

Light That Adapts to Your Space

Carry a floor lamp to wherever you need it tonight, or build a pendant cluster that fits your room exactly. Our paper lighting is designed around the way you really live.

Floor lamps

Move It Wherever You Need Light

Our tripod floor lamps are light enough to lift with one hand. Pick one up and carry it from a reading corner to the sofa, the bedside or a dim entryway, and the mood of the room moves with it.

There is no hardwiring and no electrician to book. Set it down near an outlet, plug it in, and the paper shade spreads a soft, even glow across the space.

Lightweight build

Easy to lift, carry and reposition on your own.
Plug-in design

No installation needed. Use it anywhere near an outlet.
Steady tripod base

Three slim legs keep the lamp balanced on the floor.
Flexible layouts

Refresh a room arrangement without rewiring a thing.

Ideal for reading corners, living rooms, bedrooms and home offices.

Pendant lights

Mix Shapes, Build Your Own Cluster

Choose shades in different shapes and sizes, then hang them together as one grouped installation. Setting each shade at its own height creates a layered, sculptural look that draws the eye upward.

A cluster shines above a dining table, in a stairwell with a tall ceiling, or as the centerpiece of a living room, anywhere a single pendant would feel too small.

From Plant Fiber to Glowing Paper

Traditional papermaking is a slow, patient craft. Plant fibers are softened, beaten, formed and dried into thin sheets, and every stage shapes how the finished paper will hold and soften light.

Preparing the bark

Bundles of plant bark are soaked and stripped, leaving only the inner fibers used for paper.
Cooking the fibers

The fibers simmer in a large cauldron until they turn soft and pliable.
Pounding the pulp

Softened fibers are pounded in a stone mortar to break them into fine strands.
Mixing the vat

The pulp is stirred into a vat of water until the fibers float evenly throughout.
Forming the sheet

A screen is lifted through the vat, catching a thin, even layer of fibers as the water drains away.
Pressing out water

Stacks of wet sheets go into a wooden press to squeeze out the remaining water.
Smoothing flat

Each sheet is laid on a board and smoothed so it dries even and free of wrinkles.
Checking the finish

Finished sheets are held to the light to check for an even texture before they are rolled and stored.

Why it matters for light

Long fibers that overlap in every direction give the paper strength while keeping it thin. When a bulb shines through, those layers scatter the light into a warm, even glow with no harsh hot spots.

Shaped by Hand, Shade by Shade

Every paper shade takes shape at the workbench. Our artisans build the frame, lay the paper and finish each seam by hand, giving every lamp a quiet, crafted character that machines cannot copy.

Frames Built by Hand

Each rib is bent and set around the mold by hand, one at a time, so the frame takes on a smooth, balanced curve.
Paper Laid Piece by Piece

Artisans position every paper panel by hand, lining it up with the ribs before gently pressing it into place.
Pressed and Smoothed by Hand

Fingertips follow each curved rib, pressing the paper flat and easing out the small wrinkles a machine would miss.
Trimmed with Care

Every seam is trimmed by hand with scissors, leaving a clean edge and a shade that glows evenly from top to bottom.

Why handmade matters

Hands can feel what a machine cannot: where the paper needs easing, and where a seam needs one more pass.

Shaped by hand

Every frame is covered and smoothed at the workbench.

Finished seam by seam

Edges are trimmed individually for a clean line.

One of a kind

Small variations in texture and seams are part of each shade.

See the Craft in Motion

Watch how our paper lamps come together at the workbench. From the first rib on the frame to the final trimmed seam, every stage is guided by hand before the shade reaches your home.

Frames built by hand

Ribs are set one at a time for a smooth, balanced shape.
Paper smoothed by hand

Each panel is pressed along the ribs to follow every curve.
Seams trimmed with care

Clean edges help the finished shade glow evenly.
