Moroccan lanterns. Love this ceiling lighting. These Moorish pendant lights are great because of their cutwork metal designs and the fantastic shadows and patterns they cast when illuminated.

Traditionally these metal chandeliers are made from brass in a variety of finishes (antique brass, polished brass, silver plated brass or bronze colored brass); however, they can come in different metals including aluminum.

Here are two lamps styled by Morocco in today's CHEAP TO CHIC! (although I do think both are cheap and both are chic)


Anthropologie - Casablanca Lantern - $398 (Inspired by the traditional hundi lights from Morocco. Filagree vines and lush leaves cut work pattern. Aluminum. 60 watt max. 29"H x 10" diameter. Imported)(above)


Pieces - Brushed Metal Lantern - $595 (22"h x 8.5"d. Silver plated brass. Cut work. Chain and canopy included.) (above)
