    Description

    This is a set of two antique Japanese bronze
    rinto
    or alter oil lantern c. 1900
    . This type of lantern was used at a butsudan (Buddhist shrine) when chanting and praying. It would burn for about 20 minutes.
    Very ornamental and an authentic piece of Japanese Buddhism. It is made up of many parts (10+ individual components) which are all assembled into this lovely piece of functional art.
    The
    rinto
    measures almost 23" high by 7" at its widest diameter (58 x 18 cm).
    Having been only gently used on a few occasions nearly a hundred years ago there is only some oxidation and the bronze finish, this lantern remains in
    good
    condition.
    This piece was reassembled and a couple parts were missing including a hook (see picture 8) which has been substituted with a wire and some pins (see picture 9) that fasten the bowls which have also been replaced with wire.
    PLEASE NOTE - The other
    rinto
    shown in the second photo are so that you can see that we have others to choose from. We have over a dozen matching pairs as well as some other single lanterns. We also have countless orphaned
