I bought this FUJI paper lantern for my living room, and it’s stunning. The washi paper diffuses light beautifully, creating a warm ambiance. Bamboo frame feels sturdy, and at 46cm it’s perfect scale for my space. Included LED bulb is energy efficient. Reminds me of watching baseball under soft stadium lights – peaceful yet energizing. Great value for authentic Japanese craftsmanship.
