Parol: Christmas Lanterns of the Philippines
In the Filipino language Tagalog, a Chrismas lantern is called a parol. The parols collected here decorated various hotels, restaurants, stores, and homes on or near the small tourist island of Boracay, Philippines during Christmas 1997 and 1998. As variations on the traditional parol, they are hand-made from locally available resources like coconut trees, mussel shells, and plastic packaging.
