Legends and myths abound as to the origins of Loy (floating) Krathong in Thailand. In the ancient kingdom of Sukhothai some 700 years ago in the royal court there was a lady with great artistic skills named Naang Noparmart. She loved to make little lotus-shaped ”Krathong” with banana leaves and float them on the water with a candle, incense, and other decorations as homage to the Buddha.

Even this legend mentions that the local people already celebrated a lantern festival by floating decorated lanterns on the river. When the king came to judge the best lanterns, he awarded Naang Noparmart the first prize. He further decreed that once a year, on the night of the full moon, a Buddhist holiday should be celebrated by floating lotus-shaped banana leaf boats.

Floating Wish Lanterns come in packs of two and are supplied with a tea light for each lantern. The lanterns are available in white with a wooden floating base. They can be reused and and are 100% biodegradable.
