Shoukintei Implanted Lantern
- Stone Lantern
- Implanted Lantern
This lantern, named after the tea house at Katsura Imperial Villa in Kyoto, is exceptionally rare due to its jagged geometric pattern of three squares aligned on the candle box. On the opposite side, triangular shapes adorn it, a design seldomly seen elsewhere. Crafted by a traditional stonemason, it stands as a testament to their skill.
