Crafted from copper, it features eight glass-paneled sides, each with a distinctive bump-out at the center, giving the lantern a subtly sculptural form. The lantern’s silhouette is both bold and elegant, with a large turned finial hanging from the base and a matching finial at the top, where a sturdy ring connects to an impressive eight-foot heavy-gauge chain. This length makes it versatile enough to suspend in stairwells, covered porticos, or any room with high ceilings, where it draws the eye and makes a statement. The entire piece is cloaked in a beautifully aged verdigris patina, a testament to decades of exposure, giving it a richly textured, weathered appearance. Perfect for adding character and ambiance, this lantern bridges the gap between functional lighting and sculptural artistry. See less
