追溯竹材、紙張與塑造它們的雙手

尋找這盞燈的起點不在展示廳,而在福州倉山區一條狹窄的巷弄裡。我們的採購專員 Michael Zhan 當時正在福建的竹加工村落進行例行考察,途中在一家自晚清便開始彎竹製作傢俱的家庭工坊停下腳步。工坊主人是一位七十多歲的老先生,仍使用他祖父時代的蒸箱與治具。Michael 在那裡待了兩天,測試不同竹壁厚度如何承受彎曲,最終為這款燈框選用了三年生的毛竹——質地緻密、色調均勻,且能承受落地燈輕微的彈性。

至於米紙,他向西前往福州外的一個小村落,那裡仍以手工在竹簾上澆製桑皮紙。每一張紙一層一層地鋪在模具上,然後經日曬直到呈現半透明的羊皮紙質感。Michael 選擇了三層紙的組合:最內層確保結構穩定,中層負責光線漫射,最外層則賦予柔軟的觸感。

這盞燈在福州邊緣的一間小工坊進行組裝,工匠們親手將紙燈罩裱上彎竹框架。Michael 帶到 tea.furniture 的每一盞燈都標記著造紙師傅與彎竹師傅的名字——不是為了品牌,而是作為來源的紀錄。這是一件為漫長茶會時光而生的作品,附帶可替換的燈罩,將像茶室地板一樣,隨著歲月優雅地老去。

In the workshop's words

Light character: soft, diffused, honeyed

Grain, at rest

Unlit, the paper shows a faint crisscross of fiber and a creamy ivory patina. No scent beyond the gentle, dry note of bamboo.

Under water

Switch on — the shade warms from within, turning a luminous golden-amber. No sound, no flicker; the light seems to breathe into the paper.

In low light

The glow pools at about 300 lumens, smooth and shadowless. A 2700K temperature that brings out wood grain and deepens the red of a clay teapot without casting a colored veil.

Scent

No perceptible fragrance, but the quiet warmth encourages the tea’s own scent to lift from the cup.

Underhand

Visual comfort is the note here — full coverage at kneeling height, no cold spots. The diffused circle expands gracefully to about two tatami widths.

Finish, over time

Dim it low and the room seems to shrink inward, holding a still, contemplative silence. A long, ambient farewell.

Setting it up

A method, not a recipe.

安裝時避開直接濕氣來源。米紙燈罩會隨著時間色澤漸趨柔和;替換用燈罩可從同一工坊購得。
