Vitra Akari 3AD Lamp

The Akari 3AD Lamp is part of the Akari Light Sculptures collection and was designed by Isamu Noguchi in 1951. This handcrafted, Japanese inspired light has a stunning mid-century feel and an unusual silhouette. The Akari 3AD is much like the Akari 3A, with similar dimensions and form, but differentiating with its unique black and orange pattern, granting a deeper look into Japanese style. Each 3AD is handcrafted in the Ozeki workshop in Gifu and finished with a sun and moon logo, guaranteeing authenticity to the owner and resembling their Japanese heritage.

The 3AD Lamp is a stunning piece that optimises traditional washi paper and a steel base to create a perfect equilibrium between practicality and ambience. The Japanese word "Akari" is translated to "light", a link to the goal of the entire collection, as the whole collection can be characterised by every lights weightless luminosity.
