Its tall cylindrical body (measuring 31""H) features alternating floral and lattice motifs framed by scalloped arches, while the domed top and rounded base are richly patterned to diffuse light in an elegant display of shadow and glow. The lantern retains its original hanging chains and domed canopy, with a warm golden patina that enhances the depth of the detailed workmanship. Evoking the craftsmanship of mid-20th-century Rajasthani and Mughal-inspired metalwork, this piece brings an authentic decorative presence to interiors ranging from traditional to bohemian or eclectic. It can be displayed as a statement pendant light, filled with candles for atmospheric illumination, or used purely as a sculptural accent. We have several lanterns available, each of which shows subtle variations in tone and surface from age and use, giving every piece its own character.
