It’s made in Morocco. The designs are made with henna. It would bring mysterious and exotic atmosphere to any room where it’s hanging.

I must warn, these are animal skins stretched over frames, then decorated with henna designs. The curvier shapes and the henna drawings that are more intricate and complicated look more elegant to my eyes.
Those moroccan lamps are really beautiful. And it’s made by local artists, a good thing in fact.
