Connected by long columns to a square base with slightly curved sides. In front a faux-drawer. When lit, the fine washi-paper gives a lovely warm glow. The lattice-work sides are actually removable panels, this way you were able to light the candle! Now the lamps are equipped with a newly electrified CE-fitting. No lamp bulbs included.
