Description

Old-style ceiling lantern with colonial accents, inspired by Cuba's colonial-era light fixtures. Structure built from cardboard and wire, onto which the motifs are hand-sculpted in fine detail using papier-mâché paste. It's then sanded down to remove any imperfections, followed by a coat of liquid gesso before the final step: painting. Suspended from its chain, it casts a warm glow through its side panels.
