Heavy gauge brass lantern from Morocco with beautiful fretwork at the bottom. A very well-made Moroccan lantern that you will enjoy for many years.
Using a fine blade fretsaw tool, the master artisan follows a paper pattern and does the intricate cutting work.Brass is cut, sculpted and engraved with extreme finesse.
The fretsaw tool, called "serrouj" in Morocco, gives this style of Moroccan lighting a high level of craftsmanship not found otherwise in the standard Moroccan lanterns. The high quality of these Moroccan lamps is enhanced by hand-engraving over the brass metal giving them added texture and beauty.
An art of brassware that is still practiced among fine craftsmen in Morocco.
WIRING:
