Description from the seller
Heavy
Japanese cast-iron pagoda lantern (Tōrō) – 20th century
Atmospheric Japanese pagoda lantern made of heavy cast iron, executed in the traditional style of a Tōrō (Japanese temple or garden lantern). This decorative object combines functionality with the refined aesthetics of Japanese garden culture, where lanterns play an important role as symbols of calm, contemplation and harmony.
The lantern has a characteristic pagoda shape with openwork panels and a hinged door at the front, allowing a small candle or tea light to be placed. The openings provide a beautiful play of light and shadow. Thanks to the carry handle the object can be used both upright and hanging.
A decorative piece that works both indoors and outdoors, for example in a Japanese garden, by a pond, among bonsai, or as atmospheric interior decoration. Similar cast-iron Japanese pagoda lanterns typically date from the second half of the 20th century.

Height: 27 cm
