These lanterns are a masterclass in architectural geometry, blending Art Deco verticality with the rugged durability of solid copper and brass. Their most captivating feature is the authentic, deep Verdigris patina, a natural oxidation that has created a rich tapestry of seafoam greens and turquoise hues over time.
The lanterns feature a distinctive tapered, obelisk-like silhouette. The upper section is defined by raised vertical ribs that converge toward a decorative pierced gallery at the top, allowing for subtle heat dissipation and a refined finished look.
* Lighting Configuration: Each lantern houses a three-light candelabra cluster, and one porcelain socket in the inside top. The interior brass hardware is accented by creamy candle sleeves, providing a classic, elegant glow when illuminated.
These are heavy-duty, solid-metal fixtures. The combination of copper body panels and brass structural ribbing ensures they are built to withstand the elements while gaining character with age.
Very good vintage condition. The structural integrity is sound with no major dents or warping. The glass is intact. As with all vintage hardwired lighting, we recommend inspection by a professional electrician before installation.
Their impressive height makes them ideal for flanking a grand entryway, a courtyard gate, or a large-scale patio.
Visual Texture: The "V" shaped frosted or recessed panels near the top provide a secondary architectural detail that catches the light beautifully.
Versatility: While they lean toward Art Deco or Mid-Century Architectural styles, their organic patina allows them to blend seamlessly into Mediterranean, Coastal, or even Modern Industrial aesthetics. See less
