Fuji Pendant
Designed by Toshiyuki Tani
Named after Japan's most iconic mountain, Fuji reimagines the traditional circular shape of the paper lantern, crafting an equilateral octagon solely through the use of heat treatment, without relying on any wire structure.

Fuji originates from Mito, one of Japan's primary regions for paper lantern craftsmanship. Where traditional lanterns use bamboo or wire for their internal frame, Fuji uses a cast PET resin framework, allowing light to pass through the frame itself and minimising the shadow of the structure on the shade.
The washi paper exterior has been treated to repel water and stains, incorporating eco-friendly components throughout. The natural oiled Hiba wood cone at the top completes the pendant, introducing warmth and craft to the overall composition.
Also available in this series: the Shizuku and Tama pendants.

Inspired by nature
“When we listen to nature, we discover the purest form of simplicity and the deepest sense of harmony.”
Nature is our eternal muse, from the soft glow of moonlight to the organic grain of wood. Every design captures a small echo of the outdoors, bringing a sense of calm and grounding into your home.
“We challenged ourselves to express softness with only straight lines and their combination.”
