Brighten your home with this oriental style of our Windowpane Shoji Lamp.
Made in Southern China, this lamp is constructed of spruce and rice paper. The piece stands 72 inches tall x 12 inches wide and comes in your choice of black, rosewood, honey, or natural wooden frames. Rice paper is made by cutting the pith of a large herb (Fatsia papyrifera, related to the ginseng) into one roll or sheet, which is flattened out under pressure; then outlines of lamps are made with spruce wood and the rice paper is glued to the wood. China is one of the largest manufacturers of rice paper goods. This lamp requires a 60-watt light bulb (not included)

I bought the black, tall shoji lamp. It is just as pictured and we like it a lot. It takes two, regular, low-wattage bulbs and gives off a lot of ambient light. At first I thought it was too bright, but now I've grown to like it. It is quite delicate because the rice paper could easily be damaged. However, I put it against the wall and as long as no one is bumping or touching it a lot, it will be fine. It's very stable. The cord comes out the bottom and is highly visible. The cord has a round, step on switch that is very useful. The only thing that could make it better would be if the step on switch had a tiny night light on it so you could find it easier in the dark. And if the cord was hidden better. Overall, it's a very cool lamp and I'm happy with my purchase.
This a beautiful lamp, very easy to assemble, and gives off a nice glow. We put the lamps in our acupuncture clinic, and have received many compliments on them. They were packaged securely and there are no flaws on them. I would buy more but the honey color is gone!
I love this lamp. It is very easy to put together and gives off a very nice light. It not like other floor lamps you see and is sturdy and expensive looking. It looks great with my baby grand piano and antique furniture. It would fit in many types of decor.

The lamp makes a great addition to the massage room, where I need "mood" lighting. I chose the dark brown color because I thought it would look more expensive, and I'm sure that was the right decision. I might get another for the living room.
