Fores Hayashi Kogei is a lighting brand from Gifu Prefecture famous for its Mino washi paper and interior lighting shade design. They produce numerous variations of shades in combination with exotic hand made paper.
Fores's modern arrangements of traditional Japanese lighting using washi paper have won numerous design awards for innovative lighting that can be incorporated into both Japanese and Western-style interiors in the style of artists such as Isamu Noguchi and Yanagi Sori.
Gifu prefecture itself is the traditional center of the Chochin industry in Japan, producing the finest washi paper as well as the long, uniform bamboo strips essential in producing Chochin lanterns.
The paper in these shades is hand-made with hemp fiber and rice pulp and the shades themselves are also completely hand constructed; the bamboo frames of lanterns are cross-wrapped, which is technically difficult.
They recommend not only Japanese-style rooms but also modern Japanese interiors for Western-style rooms. The simple design allows you to coordinate them with the furniture and the atmosphere of your room.
This shade comes in various sizes:
All shades come securely and safely boxed in their own boxes.
