Handmade Black And White Paper Star Lantern

Handmade and screenprinted black and white paper star lantern with intricate teardrop-shaped design motif.

Light not included

Use as a lampshade over any pendant light fitting or as a lantern with a set of battery operated LED fairy lights inside.

Our stars also look fantastic unlit as 3D decorations.

They have been tested to use with a maximum wattage bulb of 40 watts.

However - LED lamps between 2 and 5 watts are the best – the higher the wattage and lumens ( e.g. 5 watts ), the brighter it will be. For a more ambient glow, use a set of LED fairy lights or a lower wattage lamp ( e.g. 2 watts )

Our delicate black and white paper star lantern with its intricate screenprinted teardrop-shaped design motif combines a neutral palette with decorative effect. Clear white tissue paper inserts glow against a delicately etched background of black and white. Screenprinted by hand, traditional over-layering techniques create an intricately ornate centrepiece which will illuminate your room softly and complement any colour theme.

Perfect for: main lampshade, shop window, over table or in window for Christmas. Looks fantastic lit or unlit
