Eco-Friendly Shoji Lantern from Viva Terra

VivaTerraShoji.jpg

We love this shoji lantern not only because it is serene and beautiful, but also because it is eco-friendly. This lantern features handcrafted mulberry paper with pressed orchid tree leaves stretched onto frames of recycled pine wood and sustainable acacia...

 
 

The lantern measures 8.25"L x 6.75"D x 16"H, and can be used on a table or as a wall sconce (when hung from the hardware attached to the back). At $89, this eco-friendly Shoji Lantern may be too expensive for a seasonal item, but would be a great option for a long-term placement.

What are un-eco-friendly shoji lanterns? They're all made with mulberry paper, and the wood is minimal. Viva Terra is an appalling rip-off. I'd rather buy from my local Japanese import store.
