From our recent Japanese acquisitions travels.

Here’s a beautiful and unique way to accent your indoor or outdoor garden space with this treasure from Japan!

This is a unique one piece, hand carving of one of Japan’s great historic architectural forms – the minka or Kusaya farmhouse crafted as a wonderful and useful stone lantern.

Hand carved from solid granite boulder and sourced from an old Japanese garden,
it measures 11 inches high and 11 inches wide, is portable, and boasts a wonderful original dark aged patina, one piece.

This is a fine quality example and the first one piece hand carved minka stone lantern of this size we have ever seen in our fifteen years of traveling to Japan.

Many of our customers place oil candles inside the main section making a romantic and enjoyable decorative accent for entertaining friends and family. It’s a perfect choice for your indoor or outdoor garden space. Notice the very nice patina from age.

This lantern is one-of-a-kind and comes from an old Northern Kyoto Japanese garden.
