AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a stone lantern 石灯篭 made of natural stone (tuff 凝灰岩) from Kyushu 九州.
It's a lantern that preserves a more natural appearance, allowing you to enjoy the Japanese landscape.
With a height of over 30 cm, this stone lantern has a significant impact.
However, despite being over 30 cm tall, it weighs about 5 kg, making it relatively easy to carry and suitable for various locations.
It can be displayed indoors or on balconies and in gardens.
In any case, I believe this item is truly wonderful.
By the way, tuff is a rock formed from volcanic ejecta such as volcanic ash and sand.
Tuff is excellent in fire resistance, easy to process, and has a light weight, making it widely used as a building material.
As it's not easy to come by stone lanterns of this size, please consider acquiring one on this occasion.
