Steamed willow lantern with glass sleeve

These unusual  lanterns are really fabulous.  Sturdily constructed from  steamed willow with a rope handle and  removable glass jar  - at nearly half a meter tall this is a lovely statement piece to create drama in the house, or outdoors, at a very reasonable cost.  The soft grey wash version is slightly taller - they look lovely mixed together or individually, and the light throws a lovely lattice shadow when lit.

 41cm or 50 cm tall 

16cm diameter at base; 17cm diameter  at top
