Isamu Noguchi Akari Light Sculpture, Model BB3/95EN.
Original, early BB3 stand with original brass socket and single arm harp. Hand-made shade by Ozeki & Co. Ltd., Gifu, Japan (washi paper, bamboo ribbing supported by metal frame).
Noguchi’s Akari series started in 1951, model 95EN started in 1971. This is an early model, marked with iconic red sun and moon ideogram.
The 95EN is a hard model to find. We love it for its cloud like form.
