A Lamp, A Story
Mulberry paper lamps are not just lamps, but also works of art that carry ingenuity. The Mulberry Paper Lamp Series uses the simplest materials - mulberry bark and bamboo - to interpret the design philosophy of "less is more". When the lamp is turned on, the handmade folds and textures will outline a unique light and shadow painting on the wall, making the home a true spiritual habitat.
