Description
Our large round willow lantern brings a natural, handwoven feel to any candlelit setting. The frame is worked from wicker in a warm brown tone, with the willow strands woven around a rounded, dome-like form that catches the light beautifully once a candle is lit inside. At its centre sits a removable glass holder, which keeps the flame contained and shields it from draughts, so this candle holder works just as happily indoors as on a sheltered patio or covered veranda. Measuring 35cm high and 36cm wide, it has real presence without dominating a table or console.
The generous scale makes it a natural fit for a hallway table, a garden room or a spot beside the fireplace, and its organic texture pairs well with linen, stoneware and other natural materials. Group a couple of candle holders together at different heights for a relaxed grouping, or let this one stand alone as a gentle focal point. The glass insert takes a pillar candle or a chunky church candle, while a tealight or votive tucked inside a smaller glass gives a softer, flickering glow through the woven gaps.
Because the willow is a natural material, each lantern carries slight variations in tone and weave, part of its handmade character. Keep it in a dry spot to protect the wicker over time, and always burn candles within the glass holder rather than directly against the willow. To clean, lift out the glass and wash it separately, then dust the frame with a soft dry brush or cloth. Avoid soaking the woven body, as excess moisture can loosen the strands.
