{"product_id":"yakitori-lantern","title":"Yakitori Lantern","description":"\u003ch2\u003eYakitori Lantern With Charcoal Grill Calligraphy and Skewers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYakitori\u003c\/em\u003e is chicken on a skewer, grilled over charcoal and seasoned with salt or a sweet soy glaze. It began as street food sold near shrines and railway stations, and it is still eaten the same way: at a narrow counter, shoulder to shoulder, with smoke rising from the grill and a cold drink at hand. The shops are small, and what marks them from the street is the smell and a lantern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis yakitori lantern carries the words such shops put forward. Three large characters in thick black brush read \u003cem\u003esumibiyaki\u003c\/em\u003e, charcoal grilled, the promise that the skewers are cooked over real embers and not on a gas plate. A red stamp sits at the top right like a seal on a painting, and at the bottom a plate of skewers is drawn in ink, the pieces of meat picked out in red and brown. It is a complete signboard in the space of a lantern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe form is the traditional \u003cem\u003echochin\u003c\/em\u003e, with horizontal ribs and black caps at both ends. The shade is a coated fabric stretched over a spiral frame, which matters here more than anywhere: it resists smoke, grease and humidity better than paper, and it can be wiped. A ring at the top takes a hook or a cord, and a small bulb or LED inside makes the white ground glow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHang this yakitori lantern near a barbecue, under a pergola, on a covered patio or above an outdoor kitchen. Indoors, it belongs over a home bar or beside the stove. Grill restaurants, izakaya and food trucks use it as a sign, alone at the door or in a row above the counter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo sizes are available. The smaller suits a shelf or a window, the larger reads clearly from a distance. Both fold flat when the grill is put away for the winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes: 6 x 10 in (15 x 25 cm) or 8 x 14 in (20 x 35 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShade: coated fabric over a ribbed frame, water resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign: sumibiyaki calligraphy with plate of skewers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack caps at top and bottom, hanging ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolds flat for storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually, bulb not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"JAPAN CLOTHING","offers":[{"title":"15 x 25 cm","offer_id":54651787116891,"sku":"14:203221806#6;200325262:202624831#15X25cm","price":19.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 x 35 cm","offer_id":54651787084123,"sku":"14:203221806#6;200325262:202624832#20X35cm","price":24.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/9300\/2473\/files\/yakitori-lantern_1.jpg?v=1793958454","url":"https:\/\/japan-clothing.com\/products\/yakitori-lantern","provider":"JAPAN CLOTHING","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
