(2006) 5" x 3" for the lantern component. Blue opalescent glass, glass cabs, copper foil, lead solder, hardware store bought chain, rings and wall bracket.

I made a series of four of these and fixed them to the inside of our garden fence where they make for some lovely illumination in the evening. They are a little deeper than the series of free-standing lanterns I made earlier [link]

I really like the misty, opalescent look they have when they are lit. As usual it all comes down to the glass!

Beautiful! I love the shifty colors of the glass, they remind me of the Northern Lights. :love:
