A pendant lamp that resembles the pleats of a skirt
The outside of this pendant lamp is left as it is. Although dust tends to accumulate on pendant lamps, the small amount of dust blends in with the texture of the cast surface and is not a concern. The inside is carved out to reflect light beautifully.
The delicate pleats and soft curves of this design make it a perfect match for antique and classic interiors.
The surface finish is a calm, uneven silver color like mortar, called "silver unevenness," which makes use of the traditional brass coloring technique cultivated by Takaoka Casting.
Unlike general painting or plating, each piece is not uniform, but has its own unique expression, creating a warm, antique metal look.
With use, the flavor and color will deepen over time, settling into a deep color just like the surface of cast brass.
"Ginmura" is colored with a paint made by mixing pigments with a base of lacquer. After that, "Ohaguro" is rubbed in with a brush while applying heat, creating unevenness and expression.
This is a coloring technique that has been handed down for generations at Takaoka Casting, which has long been involved in producing Buddhist altar fittings and statues.

[About aging]
Compared to kitchen utensils and tableware, pendant lamps are handled less frequently and therefore do not change significantly. However, over the years the color of the brass will deepen and develop a more tasteful character.
If you touch the inside with your hands, you will leave fingerprints on it, so please wear gloves when cleaning or replacing the light bulb.
[Care instructions]
If you notice dust or dirt on the outside of the lamp, use a handheld mop to brush off the dust. If the dust cannot be removed with a mop, you can also wipe it off with wet tissue or a tightly wrung out cloth.
Handling of brass products
About brass and aging
- Products made from solid brass will change color over time. Please understand it as a characteristic of the material.
- Aging does not always occur uniformly across the product, and unevenness may occur at first. It takes time to get used to the whole thing, so please enjoy the process.
- In places where it is exposed to rain or splashes of water, the surface may have a pattern of raindrops.
- Parts touched with bare hands may cause discoloration, so it is recommended to wear unused gloves made of soft material when handling.
- If you want to slow down the aging process, apply beeswax on a regular basis to give it a glossy look and keep it in the same condition as when it was delivered. (* Beeswax cannot be used on clear coated products. Wipe off with a dry cloth. )
* Secular change may occur before delivery. Please understand beforehand as a characteristic of the material.
*The method and speed of change will vary depending on the installation environment.
* Strong changes may occur in areas where there is a possibility of salt damage.
Care instructions
- If you are concerned about dust or dirt, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. If the dirt is strong, you can wipe it with water, but be sure to wipe it with a dry cloth at the end.
- If patina (a type of blue-green rust) develops and bothers you, gently polish it with a brass polishing cloth. Please refrain from wiping with chemicals as it may cause uneven wiping.
- If rain or hand prints become black, the blackened area is not dirt but a chemical change, so it cannot be wiped off. Such traces overlap to create an antique texture. As time passes and the overall color changes to a deeper color, the marks will become less noticeable, so please keep an eye on it for a while.
- If you are concerned about the changed color or the pattern caused by splashing water, you can use a metal polish such as Picard to restore it to a clean state. Please use it above.
- Many detergents and chemicals have an effect on metals, so please carefully read the usage precautions printed on the product before using them for maintenance.
