Hand-crafted in the Philippines, these light and delicate candle holders are made with natural shell from the windowpane oyster. Each piece of shell is hand-cut and bordered with gold foil for an exotic look. Beautifully translucent and opalescent, they provide a soft and shimmery glow. We recommend the use of tealight candles with these lanterns; however, the Full Bloom Lotus design is large enough to hold votive candles as well.
