A new lantern

On Monday I bought a new lantern for my pavillion. Not only is it more correct than my brass and glass ones, but it of course doesnt' break as easily and takes up less space, which is important since there is more limited packing space this year. I will continue ot use the old ones when we bring the large pavillion, I don't care that much that they're not period, because to me they give the right atmosphere anyway and we need more lanterns in the larger pavillion. They also give more light of course, because of the glass panels.
But this one looks like a proper medieval brass lantern.




It was 250 SEK, which would be around 28 dollars or so.

I finally got to take some photos of my navy/forest green shot silk taffeta dress in the florentine style, now that it has trim and sleeves. I probably should have worn a partlet, but this was just a quick photo session to show you how it turned out and I couldn't be bothered.
