The Akari 7A Lamp is part of the Akari Light Sculptures collection and was designed by Isamu Noguchi in 1951.

The 7A stands upon a three legged steel base, and utilises a paper shade that filters out the light source to result in a soft glow illuminating the room. Each 7A is handcrafted in the Ozeki workshop in Gifu and finished with a sun and moon logo, guaranteeing authenticity to the owner and resembling their Japanese heritage.
The 7A Lamp is a stunning piece that optimises traditional washi paper and a steel base to create a perfect equilibrium between practicality and ambience.
