Charged by cable
The base charges over USB-C, and the cable is in the box. Battery and running time go on each lamp's page once the LED module is chosen.
Inspired Lamps
A mountain, a lantern, a pattern.
Lamps that grow from old objects and traditional patterns - Mount Fuji, the garden lantern, the pole lantern, the paper lantern, the patterns of cloth - on the same slim rechargeable base. Designed and printed in Malaysia. Indoors only.

Five lamps
Fuji, Andon, Tōrō, Bonbori and Moyō - each from one object or pattern, each on the same printed base.
0.84 mm
Two walls thick
Two continuous walls of translucent PLA, no infill. Thin enough that the material itself glows rather than merely holding a shape.
From Japanese objects and patterns.
Printed to order in Malaysia, one at a time, in a wall two beads thick.
What is in the box.
Everything needed to have it working the day it arrives. No wiring, and no separate trip for a bulb.

From RM379.00

A mountain on the table: a wide hat in Mount Fuji's own profile, a long gentle foot steepening to a flat summit, its jagged snow cap printed in a second colour in the same print.
From RM379.00
Tōrō
A garden lantern's frame: a pleated cylinder of light standing between two discs on four oak posts.
From RM379.00
Bonbori
The pole lantern, on a table: six pale panels widening upward inside a red frame of corner posts and rails, its posts running on below as short feet.
From RM379.00
Moyō
A soft drum of light on a solid base, plain or in one of six traditional patterns: waves, hemp leaf, tortoiseshell, seven treasures, checks or arrow feathers.

If you are not sure
The same answers the product page gives, so nothing changes between here and checkout.
What it is made of
Translucent where the lamp glows, matte for the trim, printed one fine layer at a time. Printed entirely in PLA, a plastic made from plant sugars - from crops such as corn - instead of oil.
Each spool varies very slightly in tint, so two lamps bought months apart may not be an exact colour match. For lamps that must match, order them together.
Which bulb, and why it matters
LED only, 6 W or less, and this one is not a preference.
Never an incandescent or halogen bulb: inside a closed shade it runs far hotter than a printed lamp is made for. A 6 W LED runs far cooler, which is why only LEDs are allowed. Every lamp ships with its LED.
2700 K is the warm white these are rendered and finished against. Keep the lamp out of hot direct sun as well.
