A lantern of this height is not placed on furniture; it is placed on the floor, and it then changes the geometry of a room corner or a terrace: light comes from below and casts long shadows from the uprights. It is a threshold object, placed next to a door or at the bottom of stairs.

What you need to know to install and maintain it:

• Oil the teak twice a year to preserve its original warm color
• If left outdoors, the wood will turn grey in a few months, which is its normal behavior
• Never pressure wash the glass, it is simply placed in a groove
• Carry the lantern by the handle and with both hands, never by a upright
