Have you seen these lanterns online?

Hi Girls

 

My internet searching is getting me nowhere!

 

I saw these lamps in a shop window - they are about 30cms tall - and about $60 each!

 

 

I would love to use them as centrepieces... There are battery operated candles at our resort already (in Fiji) so we are really just looking for the shell of the lamp - and it doesn't need a fancy base...

 

Anyway, just thought I would try you ladies in case someone has seen them before somewhere!!

 

Thanks,

Jo

super cute! but i would be careful about bringing in shells or anything made of shells into another country and passing customs. i don't think it's allowed.

OK, so just as a follow up incase anyone is reading this wanting to find them too -

 

An Aussie bride on another forum mentioned that she had seen lots while vacationing in Vietnam - Well I never thought to try and look for a vietnamese onlien retailler!!!

 

Two minutes on google and I have found an online retailler!!!

 

They even have one specificall for candles insted of light globes!!!

 

They are silk so no customs issues...
