29 1/2”H x 19"D
10 1/2” Chain
This lantern acts as a masterclass in Mexican Morisco design—a style that reinterprets Spanish Moorish influences through a local artisanal lens. Dating to the mid-20th century, the fixture is defined by its complex architecture: stacked octagonal tiers of hand-cut amber glass held within a heavy, hand-soldered tin framework.
The specific hue of the glazing is a rare, deep pumpkin tone, historically prized for its ability to warm a room and mimic the atmospheric quality of candlelight. Ideally suited for Spanish Colonial, Desert Modern, or eclectic Boho-Luxe projects, the piece has been completely rewired for U.S. standards with a two-light interior cluster, ready for immediate installation.
Unlike modern reproductions, the metalwork displays a rich, natural patina throughout that authenticates its age. The sheer volume and precise faceting suggest this was originally a custom commission for a grand entry or high-ceilinged hacienda interior. While the structure is solid, the piece retains the honest marks of its history, including scattered hairline cracks to the glass panels that do not detract from the lantern’s beautiful, warm glow.
