Entry Description

We created a lantern using fat wood, which is rich in resin.

In Japan, the lantern are called “ Andon “. Fat wood is a precious material that can be extracted from pines, which is rich in resin that are over hundreds of years old. The resin, which has accumulated over many years, changes a red color when it catches light, unlike the resin of other trees. Fat wood, which has been thinly processed by using special techniques, glows a bewitching red in the light.

We believe that the red glow of the Fat Wood Andon will be an advanced design that will add elegance to a variety of spaces.
