Kasuga Granite Japanese Lantern

The Kasuga Granite Japanese Lantern is a classic example of a Japanese “tachi-gata” or pedestal-style lantern. And this style of granite lantern dates back to the Ashikaga period. They were traditionally used as a “guardian” lantern at Japanese Buddhist temples and are frequently seen at entrances to Japanese tea gardens. It is commonly used as a focal point and the stone carvings on the lightbox often relate to its origin. This lantern is perfect for any yard or display. It comes with a pre-drilled hole to insert electrical, and comes with 6 separately hand-carved granite pieces.
