Akari Model BB3/33S 'Horn' Floor Lamp by Isamu Noguchi
Executed in handmade washi paper and bamboo ribs with the manufacturer's stamp. The lamp sits upon a bamboo stem that is in a cast iron pebble-shaped base. The two horn-shaped shades fit into the lacquered bamboo ring. Akari light sculptures by Isamu Noguchi are considered icons of 1950s modern design. Designed by Noguchi in the 1950s, this vintage example is from a later production run that was still largely handmade by Ozeki, the original manufacturer in Gifu, Japan and bears the Noguchi stamp of authenticity.
