Can anyone really claim to be the 'original' for paper lanterns, though - they've been being made since the 17th C. I'm not sure an unbranded one being sold cheap owes anything to Noguchi - it's not like a knock off Eames chair or something where the 'original' is responsible for design.

True that - they are very robust though, our table lamp has been knocked over many times and isn’t any worse for wear.
And to reiterate, I think they look better than many others that I’ve seen.

Given the utterly insane pricing of lamps nowadays, I’m very surprised how reasonable the Noguchi lamps are on his site. $150-200 is a bargain considering there’s a name attached to them.
