AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A very old pair of hexagonal pear shaped hanging temple lanterns 釣り灯籠 (tsuridôro) with beautiful detailed decorations.
These lamps have just been imported into the EU and come from a private antiques collector in Kyoto, Japan.
Beautiful antique lamps with an unusual shape and detail; any Japanese or Buddhist inspired area will be literally enlightened by their peaceful radiance.
The open work reminds of clouds and is covered from the inside with a diffusing layer of paper material.
During the last century this paper has weathered and the metal has gotten a darkish patina.
Both lamps have been rewired to EU standard 220V electrical current and have an energy saving LED light bulb fitted inside.
The cable length is approximately 1,8 meters, all you have to do is plug them in and switch them on.
A very nice set of antique Japanese craftsmanship!
On top is sturdy handle from which you can hang the lamp.
Dimensions:
Fixture only: 17 x 10 x 10 cm.
Fixture with tube: 34 x 10 x 10 cm.
EU plug, electrical cord with switch on each lamp: 180 cm.
Weight: 300 grams each.
Please see the pictures for details.
Shipping very fast and insured from NL. No import costs or delays in EU.
