Kozo paper is prized for its long fibres, soft texture, and translucency — properties that make it ideal for paper lanterns. When light passes through Kozo paper, it is diffused evenly with a warm, organic quality that no synthetic material replicates. The paper is durable for its weight but should be treated as a delicate handcraft object.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/details\u003e \u003cdetails\u003e \u003csummary\u003eHow do I care for the paper globe? \u003c\/summary\u003e \u003cp\u003eDo not use water or damp cloths on the paper shade.
