The region's renowned paper-making techniques rely on essential natural components such as tororo-aoi, a plant whose root extract provides the viscous agent known as neri. When mixed into water, neri allows fibers to float evenly during nagashi-zuki, the traditional sheet-forming technique that ensures delicate yet resilient paper structure. Reflecting this regional heritage, the lamp's shade features authentic Hon-Mino-shi paper crafted by a member of the Hon-Mino-shi Preservation Association. This handmade paper is produced using traditional methods registered as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage, bringing historical craft integrity directly into contemporary interior spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Ieda Shiko\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1889, Ieda Shiko began as a Mino washi paper wholesaler before relocating to Gifu City. After World War II, the company specialized in paper for traditional Gifu lanterns, establishing its corporate structure in 1948. Over generations, Ieda Shiko has focused on paper processing, stencil printing, silk printing, and flexographic printing. Its craftspeople refine hand-stenciling techniques developed to bring out the subtle shades, colors, and patterns of delicate paper lanterns. Alongside traditional methods carried on by veteran artisans, the workshop incorporates computer-assisted printing and trains younger craftspeople. Guided by a philosophy bridging art and craft, Ieda Shiko continues to share Gifu paper handiwork through both classic lantern papers and modern paper design collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRefined Accent for Modern Living\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlaced on a study desk, this compact cylinder table lamp serves as a subtle artistic lighting piece alongside a computer. On a living room console table, it adds a warm ambient presence that integrates naturally into both Japanese-style and Western interiors. In the bedroom, it rests as a bedside accent lamp to suit evening routines. Powered by connecting the cord to a 5V USB-A adapter or a computer USB port, the washi paper lamp is adjusted using the included wireless remote control, which manages ON\/OFF functions, blinking modes, and ten levels of dimming to suit various contexts across daily life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ieda Shiko","offers":[{"title":"Shippo","offer_id":67983056699665,"sku":"3207","price":170.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pine Needles","offer_id":67983056732433,"sku":"3208","price":170.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Water Ripples","offer_id":67983056765201,"sku":"3209","price":170.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/1400\/4241\/files\/japanese-paper-table-lamp-botanical-art-pine-needles-white-lit-front.jpg?v=1793960364","url":"https:\/\/millenniumgalleryjp.com\/en-gb\/products\/japanese-paper-table-lamp-traditional-pattern","provider":"Millennium Gallery JP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
