About the Item

A Beautiful Japanese Andon Lantern for Tea Ceremony. This beautiful Japanese andon lantern is a stunning example of Japanese craftsmanship. It is made of a wood frame with Awashi handmade paper and a bamboo handle. The lantern is in good condition with some minor patination on the paper, as seen in the photos.
