Bring a touch of magic to your space with the Basking Turtle Lantern, a unique, wheel-thrown and hand-sculpted ceramic creation. The lantern’s lid features a charming turtle basking in the sun, while the base showcases a serene scene of cattails, reeds, and organic leaf-shaped cutouts that allow light to gently filter through. Glazed by hand in a soothing, analogous palette of greens and yellows, punctuated by the earthy tones of brown cattails and the brown and grey turtle, this lantern creates a captivating ambiance. Perfect for accommodating a small pillar candle or three tea lights, the Basking Turtle Lantern adds a subtle, warm glow and serves as a delightful accent lighting piece, ideal for those peaceful summer evenings spent outdoors or curled up with a good book.
No two pieces of the same design look exactly alike, that’s part of the magic of handmade ceramics. Because we lean away from technologies like molds, templates, and casts, each piece is wholly unique. Minor variations in size, decoration, color and finish are intrinsic to our pottery. Please expect and embrace the variation inherent in our process.
