Japanese Lantern Drawing

Choose this Japanese lantern with a geisha design to decorate your home or garden

The chin is a folding Japanese lantern that makes light thanks to a candle. Widely used during the Edo period in the 1600s, it remains relevant today. Worn by hand or suspended, the candle lamp can also be used as a decorative object.

The structure of the Japanese lamp is made of parallel bamboo circles. This arrangement makes it possible to fold the lantern in order to put the candle and light it. It is also very practical for optimizing storage space.

This paper lantern has a cylindrical shape and has a geisha design. In the Land of the Rising Sun, the Geisha is trained very early on in Japanese art and in presentation codes such as that of the tea ceremony.

Here are some tips for a nice decoration with this paper lantern :

💯 The washi paper folding lamp can be used as a ceiling pendant or as a lampshade. For a soft, subdued light, you can light a candle or use a light bulb.

💯 The paper, made from mulberry or silk fibers, will filter the light from the candle or bulb to spread a zen and relaxed atmosphere.

💯 For a decor worthy of the lively streets of the archipelago, we recommend the red lantern . Its black inscriptions are reminiscent of lanterns placed in front of shops and bars in Japanese cities.
