MAYUHANA is crafted by hand, with string carefully reeled around a unique mold, showcasing exceptional Japanese craftsmanship and skill. While it draws on traditional motifs, MAYUHANA incorporates modern materials, making it a versatile addition to both Japanese and Western-style interiors. The spun thread design, reminiscent of a cocoon, emits a soft light, enhanced by the delicate double and triple layers of fibreglass. This piece offers a warm glow above dining tables and creates a dynamic installation in rooms with high ceilings.
