FAQs

What is the inspiration behind the Chouchin Reverse design?

The design is inspired by traditional Japanese Chōchin paper and bamboo lanterns, offering a contemporary interpretation of their form and light diffusion.

What is the difference between the Chouchin and Chouchin Reverse versions?

The Chouchin Reverse features an inverted color scheme compared to the original Chouchin. The diffuser is white, while the collar maintains the color, creating a new visual and lighting effect.

What are the dimensions of the Reverse 3 model?

Can I use any type of light bulb?

How do I clean the pendant light?

Wipe the lacquered glass diffuser with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Ensure the light is off and cool. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What does IP20 rating mean?

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the power supply is on and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Ensure the light bulb is correctly installed and not burnt out. Verify all connections are secure.

If using an LED or halogen bulb, ensure it is compatible with the fixture and dimmer (if applicable). Try a different bulb. Check the power connections for looseness.
