Pagodas originated in ancient China many centuries ago and were inspired by the Indian Stupa. A Stupa is a bell-shaped monument that is used to house relics or sacred Buddhist scriptures. Japanese stone garden lanterns reflect this ancient Pagoda design, which consists of a base pedestal, a platform for the firebox, the firebox, and the roof. Japanese lanterns were originally placed around Buddhist temples and shrines. Later they were introduced by tea masters to guide guests through gardens to the tea ceremonies that were held in the evenings. Today, garden lanterns are not only used in the Orient but have become part of our western culture. We use these beautiful natural looking structures as decorative accents for patio entrances, garden pond areas, to add harmony and balance or as a focal point in a specific spot in a flower garden. A candle or oil lamp can be placed in the firebox as a decorative element or to give light in a walkway. Simple and yet seemingly divine, they add a mystic quality, spirituality and harmony to the home and garden. AMACO Crea-stone is a lightweight casting/sculpting material that has a granite look and texture when it is hard. Crea-stone mixes with water to achieve a thick paste like cement mix. Pour this paste into available objects to create the Japanese Garden Lantern. Once the paste starts to set up you can take it out of the cardboard box/mold and start doing any needed carving to enhance the cast shape. Usually this can be done after letting it harden for about 18 hours of pouring. At that point, although hard, the piece can easily be carved with a knife. As you are carving, Crea-stone is going through a chemical reaction and becoming harder all the time. Therefore, try to keep it wet with water, but also work fast. As you progress you will have to change your carving tools accordingly from a knife to a hammer and chisel. Try to cast and finish each section of the lantern at a time before it gets to be too hard and chose a casting box/mold as close to the finished shape as possible. This will reduce the need to do too much carving. Mix enough material only for the part of the lantern that you are working on at the time. Try not to mix more than you need. If you are a little bit short on the amount, you can readily do another small mix to finish the section. Before you start, wear a NIOSH approved mask for dust and mist and make sure to wear vinyl gloves. Crea-stone is an alkaline material and will otherwise irritate your hands.
