Description from the seller

Set of 4 pagoda lanterns / Tōrō lanterns
There are some damages and signs of use on a few of them.

The pagoda has a quarter-turn opening at the bottom for placing a tea light. That opening is missing on three of the four.
Very nice airflow due to the openings all around.
Nice for by a pond, or on a table
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 they are kept outside.

The photos are part of the description.
The pagoda(s) will be sent by registered mail with a tracking code.
