VIPP581 - Paper Floor Lamp
Vipp Paper Lamp Series
The Vipp Paper Lamp Series introduces a softer, more poetic expression to Vipp’s lighting collection, standing apart from the brand’s usual robust aluminium designs. Inspired by traditional Asian rice paper lamps, the series includes both floor and pendant lamps, each crafted using time-honoured papermaking methods. This artisanal process ensures every lamp is unique, with its own distinctive surface and character. Light and almost floating in appearance, the Paper lamps diffuse a warm, calming glow that brings serenity to modern interiors.
