Japanese Cat Lantern

Description

This Japanese cat lantern will bring you the good fortune of Maneki Neko

The cat represented on this paper light is a maneki neko. It is known to bring good luck and prosperity. Often planted at the entrances of restaurants and shops, it is not uncommon to see it with one or two legs raised. The structure of the Chinese lamp is mounted in meridians (vertical) while the Japanese one is in parallel (horizontal). The advantage: you can fold it up like an accordion to store it without taking up space.

Made from fine paper, the Japanese lamp is ideal for combining the useful with the pleasant. Washi paper is made from rice paper or mulberry fibers. The wires that hold the structure were once made of bamboo, today they are more made of iron.
