The Caldera lanterns are precious and very romantic. The teardrop shape is handcrafted from iron and lined on the inside with fine gold-colored metal leaves using an ancient gilding technique. On the outside, the lantern is elegantly nickel-plated and hand-brushed, creating fine lines. Caldera should not be exposed to wind and weather, as the noble gold leaf surface could suffer. The shimmering golden light adds the perfect romantic ambiance to any evening.
