Also called chobchin, the folding Japanese lantern was used a lot during the Edo period. It could either be carried by hand or hung up. To make light, it was enough to fold the lampshade, add a candle inside and unfold the paper structure.

At the time of the first paper lamps , the round or cylindrical shape held thanks to a bamboo frame. These rods were then replaced with metal. Just like candles have given way to light bulbs.

This Japanese light fixture is round in shape. It has a hanging system that allows it to be attached to the ceiling for example. The drawings on the paper represent bamboos. They are very present in the land of the rising sun.
