This multi-color chili light cluster is an obvious choice for your next fiesta or Cinco de Mayo celebration. These lighted chili ristras are also a great choice for Christmas decor, restaurants, or anywhere you want to show some southwestern flare! Each includes a raffia bow and a raffia hook for hanging. Hanging chili ristras are tradition of the southwest. Early southwest settlers would hang a chili ristra outside their door to let travelers know they had food and shelter available. Today the ristra remains a symbol of hospitality.
