Aizome is highly regarded as "Japan Blue. However, it is not widely used in daily life except for fashion. An encounter with the indigo dyeing studio "aiya" in Toyama, Japan, led to the creation of lighting that showcases the beauty of indigo dyeing, which changes depending on the conditions and dyeing method. The indigo-dyed organdie captures the delicate light of LEDs and glows in an attractive way. The transparent support pillar emphasizes the sophistication of the indigo dye.
Rechargeable via USB for easy portability. The organdie on the shade part is easily interchangeable, so you can change it according to your mood, coordination with your interior, or the season. You can easily change the impression of the light without having to buy a new light itself.
