This is a very long shot indeed but does anyone happen to know of a
Turkish
company that makes large egg shaped lights for the garden. The ones I'm
thinking of must stand about 4' high and have star shaped holes in them
and
are made of terracotta.

Sorry, no. But if you do a night-school pottery course you can make this
yourself, probably as a slab or coil pot. These could be made in stoneware
to withstand the elements, and possibly modified so they come in two parts
(otherwise difficult to find a large enough kiln to fire them). A woman on
a course I did made a beautiful Chinese pagoda type of lantern in several
parts that all fitted together, each part about a foot high.

In fact it's such a good idea I might give it a go!
