Description from the seller

This is an old Japanese paper lantern.

It dates from the late Edo period to the early Meiji period.

The vermilion wooden frame evokes images of Japanese Shinto and shrines.

When a candle is lit, the light spilling through the square window frame is beautiful and charming.

The drawer was used to store the rush grass used for the lamp.

The Japanese paper has been replaced with new paper.

It is in very good condition for its age.
