Staggered rows of four-petal blossoms climb this narrow cylindrical pendant lantern, each set between looping arches and centered on a small metal eyelet. The lattice is pierced all the way through, so light passes cleanly through every flower and the openwork behind it. Handcarved by DE-COR artisans in Rajasthan, India, in the manner of the jali screens in the region's old havelis, it is the slimmest lantern in Chhaya, our floral jali collection named for the Hindi word for shadow. It is left in raw cedar and keeps the pale natural tone of the unfinished wood.

Slim at 7 inches square and 24 inches tall, with a 3 foot chain, it fits an entry niche, a hallway or the space beside a bookcase. It is not electrified, so it hangs as a carved object or holds a flameless candle for evening light. Minor wear, scuffs and blemishes come with hand carving and are part of its character.

Q&A
1. Do I need an electrician to hang a pendant lantern that is not electrified?
No wiring is involved. It hangs from its chain on a ceiling hook rated for its weight, anchored into a joist or fitted with a proper ceiling anchor.
2. How is a Chhaya lantern made?
Our team designed the pattern, and DE-COR artisans in Rajasthan, India carve each lantern by hand from teak and leave it in a raw finish. Because the work is done by hand, minor wear, scuffs and blemishes may appear and are part of its character.
