I cannot express how happy we are with these lanterns!! Wow! What personality they add to our family room!! They are gorgeous whether the candles (not included) are lit or not. They are the perfect size and fit for our room. We have 2, one on each side of our French doors that lead out to our back lanai. They were very affordable and we know that they will last us a long long time. We get compliments on them from every visitor and I let them know exactly where they too can purchase them if they'd like. So Happy!!!!
