Paola Lanyer Asstd - Per Piece

These lanterns are one of those items that tend to do well all year round - so many shops say customers keep asking for them in different styles. These Paola Lanyer Asstd lanterns look really good around Christmas and Easter, and even work really nicely when they’re in the background of a room in the summer or autumn. People just can’t get enough of them. And we think this is because those little details like the distressed off-white finish and the unique geometric pattern give it that something extra. The roof shape is a fun design element, with its slightly different shapes between the two lanterns, that makes you pay attention to it even if it’s not what you’re looking at directly. Both come in a 16.5x16.5x35cm dimension, so they’d probably go best in big open rooms or outdoor spaces like a garden or balcony. And they both come with large arched openings on each side, so you don’t get that problem where the candle throws shadows inside the lantern. They’ve also got a small black metal loop up top which adds a rustic contrast to the distressed greyish white finish on the rest of the item. Each lantern is constructed from high-quality cement material, so they’ve got enough heft to stay grounded if there’s strong wind (if you use it outside). That also means you’re unlikely to drop one by accident, but if you do - you won’t have a ruined piece of décor on your hands. The rustic look isn’t something shops generally put front and centre during spring or summer - but these do move throughout all four seasons. Sometimes shops will simply explain to people why these are great - they give your home that cottagecore feel without needing to go full on country bohemian chic. There are several subtle weathered details throughout the item, as well as visible patina for an aged effect. But if you want your customers to walk away with something gorgeous and rustic, the Paola Lanyer Asstd Lanterns is probably exactly what your shop has been looking for.
