Giant Red Lanterns

Flammea Himmelslaterne Set Mood For Romance

— February 4, 2008 — Lifestyle
Maybe the photograph of the amorous couple has tainted my perception, but these giant lanterns look like they create the ultimate backdrop for a romantic evening, perfect with Valentine's Day just around the corner.

The giant red lanterns act as an idealistic prop for a night of endearing conversation over wine, the perfect addition to a starlit sky. The Flammea Himmelslaterne can be customized as seen in the images where some are marked with the words, "Ich liebe dich," which in German means, "I love you."

The candle-lit Flammea were inspired by Asian lanterns that can be personalized with individual words and wishes... the seduction of the ambiance they create is certain to turn those dreams into reality. They can soar float up to 500 meters above the ground, resulting in your own customized starry sky.

They would be well suited for weddings, birthdays, New Year's Eve, and of course, Valentine's Day.
