Japanese Paper Lanterns

Russ Kinzie: Japanese paper lanterns

We specialize in what is known as "functional art": art that has a place in everyday life. While we have created speciality pieces not tied to lighting, and have designed cabinets, interior wood creations and the like, our primary focus is Japanese Paper Lanterns and all variations thereof.

Russ Kinzie Design feels that the most important value we provide is flexibility. Choose from a variety of woods, from common pine to cherry, and paper types. The designs themselves aren't strictly defined either. You decide if you want the lamp to be taller, wider, with curves or traditional. It's completely up to you!

As you are browsing through the designs and options, keep in mind friends and family that may be interested in what we have to offer. The more you order, the less you have to pay for each individual lamp!

One thing is for certain, artists like to show off! You can find us at trade shows, art shows and galleries all over the United States. Once you've seen our work and compared us to similar artwork you'll realize why we're so popular. Don't let us tell you, read for yourself in our press section!

Our projects page has all information on side projects and wood construction we have done in addition to our Paper Lamps. Enter information on your custom woodworking project and we'll give you a quote!

You can also purchase our Japanese Paper Lanterns at various artist galleries and co-ops around the United States. All of our current dealers and distributors are listed in the locate section of our website. If you feel that your local art community or store can benefit from us being there, let us know, contact us right away!

From all of us at Russ Kinzie Design, thanks! We hope to hear from you soon!
