Moroccan Market Lantern

 (4 customer reviews)

I do not know exactly what a "Moroccan Market Lantern" is but it is going to put more color into my life. Even though this lantern was packaged perfectly it required a little cosmetic surgery upon arrival. All is well in the neighborhood.

I still have not used a candle in this lantern but am looking forward to it.

Positives:
1) The colors are fine, plenty bright in my opinion.
2) The size is fine. The dimensions given in the description are accurate.

Negatives:
1) Poorly constructed. The welds (or whatever) where the different panels are attached are uneven/poorly aligned.
2) The glass panels are not very well secured.
3) The metal is flimsy and bends easily.

This product definitely was not produced to any exacting specifications.

The bottom line:
I bought one to see if it was worth getting more. It was not and so I will not be purchasing any more of this particular lantern.

I ordered this item with the intention of using it in an entertaining room and if I liked it I would purchase more, first off I would like to mention the packing, sure the box said handle with care but was completly bashed in by the time it arrived to me. Most of the glass panels were improperly placed inside and were mostly all hanging out so I had to basically re-assemble the whole thing. To top it all off the metal frame was all bent to hell, apart from the bent parts you can clearly see misshapes and "lopsidedness" in the pattern from construction, not nearly as refined as the picture. After redoing the whole thing myself I'd rather keep it than send it back...they might get to many ideas from all of the improvments I made to the orginal design.
