Shibden Hall Lantern

This is Shibden Hall, near Halifax in West Yorkshire. The beautiful hall dates back to the 15th Century. Perhaps most famously It was the home of Anne Lister from 1791 – 1840. It was she that added the turret, where she had her private study and library. The tiles along the bottom are designs taken from inside the house. The funny little characters are from the dinning room window, in fragments of stained glass taken from a much earlier building. I've painted it in the snow as I remember taking Hattie sledging in Shibden park when she was very small.

Tea-light lantern printed on fine card and laser cut (made in Yorkshire). Packaged flat with photos and instructions. It also comes with a card envelope (38cm x 16cm) so it can be sent as a ready present. The diameter of the base is approximately 12cm when put together.
