Dropship Damask: Violet (XL) - Handmade 5 Pointed Paper Star Lantern

Handmade fairly traded paper star lantern. Flatpacked. Simply open and tie over a lightbulb or LED light. Perfect for home décor, parties and celebrations.

This is an atmospheric purple lampshade with a beautifully contrasting colour scheme. Swirls of violet are set against a deeper violet background and edged with a white screen printed detail. Light glows through green, pink, blue, lime green and yellow tissue paper inserts. Screen printed by hand using natural pigments and traditional over-layering techniques, each of its 5 points is punctuated with tiny pinpoints of golden yellow tissue to add a delicate touch - and minute perforations create a striking glimmer.

Hang this 5-tipped starlight lantern in a window for a beautiful display for the Holidays and pair up with the smaller Damask Blue to make a truly spectacular festive statement!

Our Starlights arrive flatpacked – simply fold open each point consecutively and tie over a lightbulb or LED. See your flatpacked star transformed into a beautiful 3-dimensional source of light. 

This larger-sized star measures 87 cm from point to point when opened and comes with full instructions. They are recommended for use with LED bulbs up to 7 watts, or low energy lightbulbs up to 16 watts - bulbs and fittings are not included with your star. They look fantastic with LED “fairy“ or “string” lights – just make sure they conform to the appropriate standards and that the bulb doesn’t touch any part of the star. The actual bulb wattage shouldn’t exceed 40 watts. Can be used indoors and in sheltered outdoor spaces. All stars conform to British Standards.
