Japanese Wood & Glass Ceiling or Pendant Light

Japanese interior lighting works on the principle that light should be softened before it reaches you rather than delivered directly. Frosted glass held in a plain wood-finish frame does exactly that: the source disappears entirely and what remains is a lit surface with no bright point anywhere on it.

The frame is what separates this from a generic frosted panel. A wood tone warms the light reflected off it, ties the fitting to floors and furniture, and gives the piece an edge and a shadow so it reads as an object rather than a blank rectangle of glow.

Read the options carefully before ordering: this listing covers two different fittings. The ceiling-lamp version mounts close to the ceiling with a shallow profile; the pendant version hangs on a drop. Both are offered in two wood tones, a lighter natural and a darker walnut. There is no size choice - each version is supplied in one size. It is a hardwired fitting - isolate the circuit at the breaker panel first, and have a qualified electrician confirm the fixture's rated voltage before wiring it in.

• Frosted glass conceals the source completely
• Choose the ceiling-mount version or the hanging pendant version
