AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A charming pair of decorative ornaments inspired by traditional Japanese lanterns.

The elegant design features a broad roof, openwork lantern section, and pedestal base, reflecting the aesthetics of classic Japanese stone lanterns. The dark aged patina and visible inner structure create a distinctive decorative presence suitable for Japanese-style interiors, tea rooms, or antique collections.

The paper panels originally attached to the lantern sections have deteriorated and peeled away over time, leaving the framework exposed. This age-related condition contributes to the authentic character of the pieces and is not considered a recent damage.

Dimensions (each):

Height: 30 cm
Width: 12.5 cm
Depth: 12.5 cm
Weight: 1,921 g

The items show age-related wear, surface marks, and patina consistent with age and use. Sold as a matching pair. Please review the photographs carefully for condition details.
