some say he's still staring at that light to this day
I have been a fan my entire life since early childhood in England. Simply the best.
I dismantled my Noguchi tabletop when I moved and no amount of instructions have helped me to get it back together. So sad. I love these light sculptures and would love to have more.
Hello, can you tell me if this lamp can be safely used in the US or will I need a converter? Thx!
Hello! If you are in North America and purchase an Akari from The Noguchi Museum, it will be wired for use with 120 Volt electrical systems; appropriate for use in the US. If you are outside of the United States you will need to use a voltage converter. shop.noguchi.org/pages/faqs
@@TheNoguchiMuseum Thank you. I have a lamp on hold at the Ozeki showroom. Not sure how long the wait is for restocking at The Noguchi Museum.. I have a problem with instant gratification, lol. If you know the wait time that would be helpful :)
I have seen some models that have a thread you pull to light it up, while others (like this one) have a switch you rotate at the base. Is it optional or do you know why it varies?
can you use a brighter blub?? LEDs don't radiate heat.
