A collection of contemporary home decorative accessories. The group comprises multiple lanterns of varying designs, including one large black metal lantern featuring an ornate Moroccan style fretwork pattern with a domed top and four rectangular metal-framed lanterns with glass panes and integrated battery-operated LED pillar candles. The rectangular lanterns are finished in dark grey and copper tones, each featuring tiered ventilation tops and circular carrying handles. The lot further includes a terrestrial globe on a polished brass-tone pedestal base, featuring a white map with gold-tone continental outlines and English geographic labels including SAUDI ARABIA and INDIAN OCEAN. Also present is a cylindrical metal planter or pot with a repeating floral mandala pattern in a burnished bronze finish, supported by three slender metal legs. The assortment is completed by a silver-tone metal bookend shaped as an owl, a silver-tone metal figurine of a soldier or “Bobby” in a vintage style uniform, and two tall cream-coloured candlesticks with decorative leaf and floral motifs. No maker’s marks or signatures are visible on the items.
