Dogs are known for being loyal, kind and honest, but it is their inherent playful nature that has inspired this lantern.
The shiny coat of the Dog is represented in the form of shimmering, colourful flowers that are made out of recycled plastic bottles. Reaching up to 2.8m in height, the Dog is festive, fun and friendly.
