These attractive lanterns are made from recycled glass and decorated with a pretty white floral pattern. They look beautiful on a table or sideboard as well as outside in a garden. Although glass is one of the most harmless materials produced by the world, this is because it is essentially made of raw materials, it does not break down in landfill. Recycling glass not only saves energy (50% less energy that that required to make new glass) but is an ongoing process, as glass can be recycled continually. This means we can create new beautiful and useful objects with less impact on our environment.
