About the Item

Add timeless French character to an entryway, hallway, or wine cellar with this elegant antique hanging lantern. Crafted in France circa 1870, the decorative light fixture combines the refined craftsmanship of the Napoleon III period with Gothic Revival architectural influences. The lantern features a four-sided wrought iron frame fitted with colorful stained glass panels in shades of amber, red, blue, and textured clear glass. Each panel is decorated with Gothic pointed arches and geometric diamond motifs, creating a beautiful interplay of color and light. One panel incorporates a small hinged door, allowing easy access to the interior. The elaborate iron framework is embellished with intricate scrolling foliage, acanthus leaves, floral rosettes, and gracefully curved arms extending from the upper and lower sections. The fixture is crowned with an ornate scrolling finial and terminates in a decorative pointed pendant. The antique lantern is fitted with three interior lights, newly wired to US standards and dressed with decorative faux candle sleeves. It is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, retaining its original patinated black iron finish with subtle gilt accents throughout. Perfect for a powder room, staircase landing, covered entry, or intimate dining space, this distinctive French lantern offers both architectural elegance and warm, atmospheric lighting. Included: Canopy, loop, and chain, all color-matched to the fixture. Dimensions: 16"W x 16"D x 29.5"H.
