Collection: Japandi Bedroom

A Japandi lamp is an essential item for any Japandi style bedroom. Lamps made from natural materials such as washi paper, bamboo, and wood integrate seamlessly into Japandi style interiors.

At Millennium Gallery Japan, the Paper Lamps are handcrafted by artisans who carry on the tradition of Japanese lantern-making. These lamps draw on techniques passed down through generations, such as those used in Gifu lanterns, which also influenced Isamu Noguchi’s iconic Akari series, and Yame lanterns from Fukuoka—another well-known lantern-producing region. Each piece emits a soft, warm glow that harmonizes with both Japandi bedrooms and interiors, offering a sense of quiet elegance.

One of the most notable features of these lamps is the high-quality washi paper used. For example, Mino washi, considered the finest grade of Japanese paper and used in Gifu lanterns, is remarkably durable despite its delicate thinness. Plant-based fibers gently absorb light and disperse it evenly, resulting in a glow reminiscent of natural daylight. This contributes to a serene atmosphere throughout the space. Unlike ordinary paper lamps made with mass-produced rice paper, lampshades made from handmade washi paper possess a soft, off-white hue—a neutral tone that enhances the understated elegance of the Japandi aesthetic. Their natural materials, calming presence, and muted tones make Japanese paper lamps an ideal complement to the Japandi bedroom, transforming it into a more restful and tranquil space.

Japanese bamboo lamps, with their natural beige and brown hues, also blend effortlessly into Japandi style interior design. The unique and refined designs created by skilled artisans bring a distinctive character to your Japandi bedroom. Millennium Gallery Japan's Bamboo Lamps are made using Suruga Take Sensuji Zaiku, a traditional bamboo craft from Shizuoka Prefecture. Bamboo is a strong yet lightweight and sustainable material, increasingly appreciated for its environmental benefits—but its crafting requires extensive time and advanced techniques. Among the artisans practicing this craft, only 12 are currently qualified to produce these bamboo lamps, making each piece a rare and valuable item. Every lamp reflects the individuality of the artisan, who oversees everything from design to processing and finishing. A handcrafted Japanese bamboo lamp will bring a sense of quiet sophistication and uniqueness to your Japandi bedroom.

Wood is another indispensable material in Japandi style interior design. Millennium Gallery Japan’s Wood Lamps are crafted using Kumiko, a traditional woodworking technique with over 1,400 years of history. Kumiko involves assembling small pieces of wood into intricate geometric patterns. The precision required is so fine that even a deviation of 0.1mm can compromise the entire structure. Kumiko lanterns allow you to appreciate the craftsmanship in two ways: the sheer beauty of the Kumiko itself when unlit, and the play of shadows and patterns it casts when illuminated. These lamps embody the Japandi philosophy—harmony between form, function, and simplicity—while bringing refined artistry to the bedroom.

Japanese Floor Lamp for Japandi Bedroom

Floor lamps are essential lighting elements that significantly influence the overall atmosphere of a space. In bedrooms, they softly illuminate areas that overhead lighting may not reach, adding warmth and depth to the room. In Japandi interior design, this kind of soft, diffused light plays a crucial role in creating an environment of serenity and comfort. Beyond functionality, the material texture and overall form of the lamp are equally important considerations.Ideal Japandi bedroom floor lamps feature natural materials, minimalist shapes, low-profile designs that create visual breathing space, and softly diffused light. Millennium Gallery Japan’s Paper Floor Lamps, Bamboo Floor Lamps, and Kumiko Lanterns reflect all of these characteristics and contribute to building a refined Japandi space.

The Paper Floor Lamp emits a warm, natural glow through high-quality washi such as Mino washi, softly diffusing light and bringing calm to the entire space. Among the most popular models at Millennium Gallery Japan is the Japanese Paper Floor Lamp "BEANS LIGHT", which uses Mino washi embedded with fragments of mulberry bark (kōzo). As the soft light shines through, the shadows of the bark fragments gently appear, evoking a tranquil ambiance. The lamp’s low, bean-shaped form serves as a charming accent in any Japandi bedroom, adding a subtle touch of playfulness to its serenity.

The Bamboo Floor Lamp, with its fine bamboo strips forming graceful curves, creates delicate shadows and a gentle presence in the room. As bamboo ages, its texture and color deepen, embodying the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, which accepts the passage of time and imperfection—an ideal match for the Japandi style. These floor lamps are crafted using Suruga Take Sensuji Zaiku, a traditional bamboo craft from Shizuoka Prefecture, known for its exceptional precision. Each lamp’s unique design showcases the artisan's skill.One of the most celebrated models, the Japanese Bamboo Floor Lamp "Hagoromo", is distinguished by its elegant form and quiet presence. The soft light filtered through its washi shade, combined with the intricate bamboo structure, casts a beautifully layered glow across the room, cultivating a calming space. As a bedside floor lamp, it adds depth to your pre-sleep routine and complements the tranquil character of a Japandi bedroom.

Kumiko Lanterns, known for their soft light and intricate geometric patterns, stand out even during the day as sculptural pieces of home decor. These wooden lamps are crafted from premium Akita cedar using the traditional Kumiko joinery technique. A standout piece in this series is the Japanese Kumiko Lantern "Asanoha" – Large, a minimalist cube made from over 600 precisely joined wooden pieces. Due to the complexity of its production, only around 50 units are made per year, making it a rare and collectible Japandi wood floor lamp. The warm tone and refreshing scent of the Akita cedar further enhance the atmosphere of the Japandi bedroom, inviting a deeper sense of relaxation. These Japandi floor lamps are more than just lighting—they are subtle centerpieces that bring tranquility, texture, and warmth to the space.

Japanese Table Lamp for Japandi Bedroom

In a Japandi bedroom, the table lamp plays a vital role in setting the mood of the space. Beyond serving as functional lighting for bedtime reading, it also acts as a decorative accent, adding warmth and depth to the room. Within Japandi style, natural materials, understated forms, and gentle, diffused light are highly valued—making table lamps an important element that reflects these core principles.Millennium Gallery Japan offers a curated selection of Paper Table Lamps, Bamboo Table Lamps, and Kumiko Lanterns, all designed to help create a serene and refined Japandi bedroom.

The Paper Table Lamp features handmade washi shades, including Mino washi, known for its soft texture and ability to diffuse light gently—resembling the glow of natural light. One of the most popular models in this category is the “TORCHIN”, a minimalist design that combines a handmade washi shade with a wooden handle. It is cordless, equipped with a three-level dimmer, and easily operated with a touch sensor button, making it ideal for relaxing nighttime use. With its wabi-sabi-inspired design and refined functionality, it is a perfect lighting solution for the Japandi bedroom.

The Bamboo Table Lamp, crafted using Suruga Take Sensuji Zaiku—a traditional bamboo craft from Shizuoka—is admired for its delicate construction and refined curves. The natural texture of bamboo and its graceful lines add subtle movement and warmth to the space. Among the artisan-made lamps at Millennium Gallery Japan, the “Japanese Bamboo Table Lamp 'Kisaragi'” stands out for its minimalist design that reflects the wabi-sabi aesthetic.

These patterns create a poetic contrast of light and shadow, adding depth and calm to the room. Millennium Gallery Japan offers three sizes: Kumiko Lantern Small, Extra Small, and Mini. Among them, the Kumiko Lantern Small includes a corded power switch, allowing easy operation before bedtime. Spend a quiet evening surrounded by the refined craftsmanship of Japanese artisans and let the warm, gentle light help you unwind.

Even after carefully furnishing a Japandi style bedroom, some may still feel that something is missing. While Japandi interior design emphasizes “ma” (intentional empty space), pushing minimalism too far can sometimes compromise comfort. Once you’ve selected the basics—such as a low bed, neutral-colored bedding, and a bedroom lamp—the next step is to add warmth and character through carefully curated Japandi home decor.

At Millennium Gallery Japan, we offer three types of handcrafted Japanese home decor made by artisans who embody the aesthetics of wabi-sabi: vases, wall art, and incense. The key to Japandi style is not simply “removing” objects, but “selecting” them with intention. By thoughtfully choosing items that resonate with this philosophy, you can transform your Japandi bedroom into a serene, relaxing space that supports restful sleep.

Japanese Vase for Japandi Bedroom

A Japandi vase does more than hold flowers—it becomes a sculptural art piece that enhances the room on its own. At Millennium Gallery Japan, we offer a wide variety of vases crafted from materials such as wood, bamboo, and stone.

The Japanese Cedar Vase is made from premium Hida cedar, meticulously polished by skilled woodworkers. With its minimalist form and warm, expressive grain, it’s a quintessential example of a Japandi vase. For a calm and restful evening ambiance, we recommend the Indigo-colored Cedar Vase, which pairs beautifully with dim lighting and invites a tranquil mood before sleep.

Our Bamboo Vase series is handcrafted using the same traditional technique as our Bamboo Lamps, Suruga Take Sensuji Zaiku. Each piece is made entirely by hand—from design to bamboo preparation to finishing—resulting in a unique work that reflects the artisan’s individual style. If you’re looking to introduce an accent piece into your Japandi interior, a Bamboo Vase is an excellent choice.

The Aji Stone Vase is crafted from Aji stone, a granite sourced in Kagawa Prefecture and often referred to as the "Diamond of Granite.” Its soft, bluish-neutral tone and slightly rough texture blend naturally with Japandi interiors, adding depth and material richness to the space.

Japandi Wall Art for Japandi Bedroom

Wall art not only enriches everyday life as an artistic expression but also serves as a practical element in Japandi style interiors, where it can subtly balance the negative space on walls. At Millennium Gallery Japan, we particularly recommend two types of wall art: Kumiko clocks and gold leaf wall panels.

Kumiko clocks are crafted using Kumiko, a traditional Japanese woodworking technique where small wooden pieces are assembled to form intricate geometric patterns. These timepieces are made from woods such as Akita cedar, walnut, and cypress, allowing their natural hues to harmonize with the tones of a Japandi style bedroom. There are over 200 types of Kumiko patterns, each with its own meaning. For example, the Asanoha (hemp leaf) pattern symbolizes protection and the healthy growth of children. Why not select a wall piece not only for its beauty but also for the story and wishes it holds?

Our Gold Leaf Wall Art is created in Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture, which produces 99% of Japan’s gold leaf. With over 450 years of history, the craftsmanship involved in gold leaf production is incredibly precise—some sheets are as thin as 1/10,000th of a millimeter. Inspired by natural elements such as trees, waterfalls, and lightning, artisans layer gold leaf to express these motifs with subtle texture and depth. These wall pieces shift in appearance depending on the light—offering different impressions under the warm glow of a room lamp at night and the soft morning sun. Incorporating such artwork into your Japandi bedroom can create an ever-changing focal point, adding richness and dimension to the space.

Japanese Incense for Japandi Bedroom

To make your Japandi bedroom even more inviting, consider enhancing the space through scent. Introducing Japanese incense sticks into a Japandi style bedroom adds another layer of depth and tranquility. Fragrant woods such as hinoki (Japanese cypress) and sandalwood are known for their calming effects, helping to ease the transition into sleep and improving sleep quality overall. Scent works directly through the olfactory system to influence the brain, reducing stress and anxiety.By adding the invisible element of fragrance to a minimalist and organized space, you can create a more complete environment for relaxation before bed. At Millennium Gallery Japan, we offer incense sticks that capture the essence of nature—an essential theme in Japandi style—as well as minimalist incense holders that complement refined interiors.

One standout brand is KITOWA, a modern fragrance label that carries on over 1,000 years of Japanese incense culture. KITOWA offers incense sticks and incense candles that evoke the rich forests of Japan, featuring scents like hinoki, hiba (Japanese cypress), and kusunoki(camphor trees). These natural fragrances bring a deeper sense of peace and harmony to your Japandi bedroom.

We also offer incense holders and plates crafted to enhance the incense experience. For example, our pieces made from Arita porcelain, a revered Japanese ceramic tradition, are known for their smooth texture and minimalist design—perfectly suited to the Japandi furniture aesthetic. Why not add the subtle beauty of fragrance to your bedroom and elevate the entire space with thoughtful finishing touches?

A Japandi bedroom is a soothing and restorative space born from the fusion of two philosophies: wabi-sabi from Japan and hygge from Scandinavia. The warmth of natural materials, gentle lighting, and minimalist compositions that eliminate visual noise all work together to carefully prepare the mind and body for rest before sleep. When scent, art, and handcrafted décor pieces by artisans are added to this foundation, the Japandi bedroom evolves from a space you merely “use” into one you deeply “feel.”

At Millennium Gallery Japan, we offer a thoughtfully curated selection of Japanese home decor to help you bring your ideal Japandi bedroom to life. Lamps, vases, wall art, and incense—each item is carefully chosen to embody the core principles of Japandi style.

If you're seeking a quiet, comfortable, and beautifully composed space, we invite you to explore the Japandi Bedroom Collection from Millennium Gallery Japan. Discover items that transform everyday moments into peaceful rituals, crafted for those who value design with depth and intention.
