Let the light pierce through the darkness Close all old accounts, turn a new leaf Re-learn that old lesson of friendship Kill nor be killed, settle for lessening Amidst us of this fossilized hatred

Intoduction To The Art Form Of Japanese Lamps and Lanterns
Bonbori (雪洞)is the ancient Japanese art form of making wood and paper lanterns. Japanese lamps were originally made with washi rice paper and lighted with candles or oil. With low wattage bulbs, Japanese Lamps emit a warm, soothing and gentle light and are used in a variety of settings from cultural ceremonies to artistic display to home decorating.
Japanese lamps are hand-crafted using a variety of hardwoods and fine Asian papers. Natural oils are used to enhance the color and grain of the wood. Traditional Japanese and original contemporary styles are combined to create unique designs. Japanese lamps express opposing forces as many kinds of oriental art do: simplicity with elegance; subtleness with daring; serenity with complexity; delicateness with stability. Japanese lamps create soothing, meditative environments with their warm, soft and adjustable light diffused through delicate papers using nature’s simple shapes and complex patterns in the wood design.
The cover of a Japanese lamp may have some images etched into it that produce a stunning effect when the lamp is turned on. Suddenly your room is filled with the images of unknown animals and mysteriously beautiful figures. The Japanese have always known how to turn daily routine and dull surrounding into a magical world and their home decoration style is a proof of their unique skill.
