Aesthically pleasing Taisho Period C. 1920 zen buddhist bronze temple altar lantern. It has an electric lighting source inside (must be re-wired which we can do upon request). The bronze is heavy bronze and the lines and shapely curves plus the hexigonal mid-section creates a wonderful atmosphere. The hinges and door latch are perfect and the lattice work is exceptional. A slight hole in one of the paper panels but can be easily repaired on request. H: about 44cm; diameter: about 19cm. Ask for shipping quote.
