Created in 1976, the Akari 5X is one of the most iconic table lamps in the AKARI collection.
Isamu Noguchi's Akari light sculptures are considered icons of 20th century modern design. Designed by Noguchi from 1952 and handmade for half a century by the original manufacturer in Gifu, Japan, these paper lanterns are the perfect combination of Japanese craftsmanship and modernist forms.
The lamps are made from washi paper glued to a bamboo wire ribbing, supported by a thin metal frame.

Customer Reviews
This is exactly what I was looking for. Our small living room needed a lamp in addition to the overhead light. It works perfectly and it's also a designer piece. We added a dimmable light bulb and connected the lamp to a Leviton controller.
The lamp is as advertised and I love it ?? It is pretty bright and I wish it had a dimmer switch. However, I can change change the bulb to a smart bulb
Love! It goes with any aesthetic and gives off a warm ambient light. Definitely a statement piece. Would recommend!
My bed side table looks so glamrous!! great lighting, too.
I was looking for a nice accent table lamp for my living room. This one works great! I love the warm tone. It’s not extremely bright, but adds a nice glow to one corner of the room.
