vintage Chinese hanging lantern

This antique Chinese hanging lantern features a hand-worked wire mesh frame surrounding a paper shade with warm red tones and a turned wooden base. Its sculptural silhouette and richly aged materials make it a striking decorative accent, whether suspended from the ceiling or displayed as an object on its own. The timeworn finish and layered construction bring warmth, texture, and character to a thoughtfully furnished space.

CONDITION

In good condition with wear consistent with age and use. Wear, discoloration, and scattered losses to the paper shade, including small holes and old repairs. Oxidation and patina to the wire frame and hanging hardware.
