History of Yukimi lantern: Yukimi-doro or legged lanterns have as a base not a post but from one to six curved legs, and a wide umbrella with a finial either low or absent. Relatively low, they are used exclusively in gardens. The traditional placement is near the water, and a three-legged lantern will often have two legs in the water, and one on land. The umbrella can be round or have from three to eight sides, while the fire box is usually hexagonal. Yukimi denotes water reflection. In the west they are sometimes referred to as "snow viewing" lanterns- as snow might build on their broad rimmed top during a wintery event. This form was probably developed during the Momoyama period, but the oldest extant examples, found at the Katsura Villa in Kyoto, go back only to the early Edo period . Provenance: Old American Japanese garden. Lifetime guarantee of authenticity: All of our Asian works of art come with our lifetime authenticity guarantee.
