About

At Kyoto Lantern Co., we believe light does more than brighten a room—it tells a story. Our story began under the soft glow of lanterns in the vibrant streets of Kyoto, where tradition and art have danced together for centuries. Wandering through bustling festivals and quiet artisan studios, we were captivated by the delicate beauty of Japanese paper lanterns: each one a canvas, each design a story whispered through soft, glowing light.

Inspired by these moments, we set out to bring this timeless art into modern homes. Partnering with master artisans in Japan, we celebrate their dedication to craft, blending ancient techniques with designs that spark a sense of wonder. Each lantern is more than décor—it’s a bridge between worlds, a piece of history that illuminates your space with meaning.

Our mission is simple: to create lighting that feels like art and tradition coming to life. Whether it’s the bold hues of a festival print or the quiet elegance of a minimalist design, every lantern is made to transform your space into something extraordinary.

At Kyoto Lantern Co., light isn’t just functional—it’s emotional, cultural, and beautifully personal. Bring a little piece of Japan into your home, and let the glow tell your story.

Welcome to our world of light.
