The Balloon Lamp - A Modern Japanese Lamp

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 03:03:27 -0500

The Balloon Lamp is a new modern day version of the paper lantern. I know, I know, paper lanterns are still very cool, but designer Kouichi Okamoto has replaced the candle with a high intensity LED bulb and the paper lantern with a rubber balloon. Not only does the bright LED generate no heat which makes it much safer than paper surrounding fire, it can also last around a hundred hours on the two provided batteries. The Balloon Lamps are wireless and portable so they can be hung up all around your home or yard and if you purchased thousands of them, you could have one incredibly illuminated balloon drop on New Year's Eve!

Masu - Square Cedar Sake Cups

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Fri, 01 Dec 2006 10:35:51 -0600

I love Japanese Sake, but I've never had it served in a Masu - Square Cedar Sake Cup. The tradition goes that you place the wooden Masu on a saucer and pour the cold Sake in until it overflows, then choose a corner and sip away. Supposedly the cedar enhances the flavor and aroma. Great gift for Sake lovers.
