01Overview
Hand-crafted paper stretches over a delicate ribbed iron frame.
The Akari Xuan Paper Pendant Light stretches hand-crafted paper over a delicate ribbed iron frame in Black, so light diffuses through the paper into a warm, soft glow. It's a hardwired, chain-suspended fixture available in two sizes, well suited to an entryway, above a dining table, or in a bedroom reading nook, and works with sloped ceilings up to 30°.

Ribbed iron frame

07Questions
Do I need an electrician to install this?
Yes. This fixture is hardwired, not plug-in — it wires into a standard ceiling junction box and connects to a wall light switch. Professional installation is recommended.
Is a bulb included?
No. You supply an E26 or E27 base bulb separately. Check the wattage limit printed on the fixture before buying.
What's the difference between the two sizes?
Size A is a shorter, more compact lantern (52 cm tall); Size B is a much taller column (156 cm tall) at nearly the same diameter — better suited for a high-ceiling drop.
Can I install this on a sloped ceiling?
Yes, it's compatible with ceilings sloped up to 30°.
How do I clean the paper shade?
Dust gently with a soft, dry brush. Avoid water and moisture — the paper is not washable, and always turn off power before cleaning.
