Taiwan-Lantern: Heritage in a New Light

Founded in 2013 by Pei-Ching Hsiao, Taiwan-Lantern is an Amsterdam-based studio on a mission to revive Taiwan's rich traditions and century-old craftsmanship. Beyond the common perception of mass production and electronics, the studio cherishes Taiwan's unique heritage, crafting items with stories and memories.

 

They work with Taiwan’s last traditional lantern factory and skilled local artisans to modernize designs, improve quality, and return to natural materials. Each lantern blends crafts like ceramics, plant dyeing, painting, woodworking, and bamboo, honoring Taiwan’s heritage while evolving the art of lantern making. With 95% locally sourced natural materials, their lanterns connect tradition to a sustainable future, crafted with heart and soul.
