Description from the seller

Beautiful cast-iron pagoda, lantern / Tōrō lantern
Very rarely seen model with hand-blown glass on the inside. There are some minor damages from handling, but it is securely fixed.

The pagoda has a quarter-turn opening at the bottom for placing a tealight.
Very nice ventilation thanks to the openings all around.
Nice for beside a pond, or on a table
The total dimensions are approx. 33x23x23 cm
Can be used as dai-dōrō (standing lamp) and as tsuri-dōrō (hanging lamp)
The original lacquer will over time give way to corrosion if kept outside.
