Black Bamboo Lantern

Bamboo is symbolic of strength, durability and flexibility in Chinese culture due to its tough resilience. It can survive even the harshest of conditions year round while still remaining green. The Chinese believe that adding bamboo in your home, or even pictures of bamboo, can promote a long life. This special paper lantern from China features a black bamboo stalk, which contrasts beautifully against the all-white background shade. Use it in a series of lanterns or combine it with our Green Bamboo Chinese Lantern for an awesome decorative effect.
