Akari 16A is a Vitra pendant lamp designed by the Japanese-American sculptor, architect and designer Isamu Noguchi in 1951. The lamp is handmade from shoji paper, paper made from the bark of the mulberry tree, and is held up by a steel wire structure. Akari 16A is part of the Akari lamp series, a series of lamps designed by Noguchi and handcrafted by Japanese craftsmen. Noguchi's work is artistically linked to abstract expressionism and his style came to have a major influence on 1950s design. All light sculptures in the Akari series are marked with a logo representing the sun and the moon, which confirms the authenticity of each product.
