Description
The Washi Paper Globe Pendant Light 100cm is an oversized paper pendant designed to create soft, diffused ambient lighting in larger interior spaces. Its lightweight washi paper shade gently softens the light, while the painted steel wire frame helps maintain the round shape without making the fixture feel visually heavy.
With a 100 cm / 39.4 in diameter, this pendant light works well above larger dining tables, in living rooms, bedrooms, studios, boutique spaces, and interiors with higher ceilings. Its simple globe form pairs beautifully with minimalist, Japandi, modern organic, and gallery-style interiors.
This pendant light is designed for indoor hardwired installation and uses one E27 bulb. LED bulbs are recommended for lower heat, better energy efficiency, and comfortable everyday lighting.

Customer Reviews
5 reviews for Akari 100A | Washi Paper Globe Pendant Light
Akari 100A | Washi Paper Globe Pendant Light 


















It’s large and gives off big soft light, depending on which kind of bulb I use in it. Yes, it’s paper wrapped around metal wires, but that’s what makes it so cool. Just be careful with it! I collapse it down flat and expand it all the time for photo shoots and I only have one little tear on it. I patched it with a small piece of clear scotch tape and forgot where the tear is. So… buy and be gentle. It provides great atmosphere and people tend to gravitate to it and ask about it.
Great, easy to assemble. Sturdy.
This is a monstrously huge china-ball, and the diffused light is remarkable. It’s a bit flimsy, but it’s simple rice-paper so what can you expect? For the price, this is exactly what I needed.
Love this Lantern it looks great in my shop!
This was huge….but tears very easily.
