    The Jumping Fish Lamp takes its name from an ancient Chinese fable in which carp swim upstream and leap a great height to transform into dragons. Designed by Henry Gibbon/Standard Practice and handcrafted in Copenhagen, the lamp captures that moment of suspension: two curved wings of Korean mulberry paper held in tension by stainless steel and Douglas fir. The paper diffuses light softly downward, glowing warm from within. Up close it reads as structure — taut, considered, almost kite-like. From across the room, it simply floats.

    When we designed the Japanese Danish inspired lamp we looked at papers from a different locality because it adds to the meaning of the piece, it adds to the character and to the longevity of it in some ways.
