Vintage Indian Jali lantern.

This decorative pierced metal lantern features traditional Jali cutwork, a design technique used across Indian architecture and craft to create beautiful patterns of light and shadow. The hinged lid and clasp allow access inside for a candle or small items.

The aged metal and natural patina give it a rustic vintage character, making it perfect as a lantern, candle holder, or decorative storage piece.

Small variations, wear, and patina are part of its authentic vintage charm.
