About the Item

In this listing you will find a striking late 19th century hanging lantern, distinguished by its richly textured turquoise glass reservoir and ornate gilt brass framework. The hand-blown glass body, rendered in a vivid blue-green tone, features an irregular, almost hammered surface that beautifully diffuses light when illuminated. The organic texture gives the piece a sculptural presence even when unlit, while subtle variations in the glass attest to its artisanal production. The form is elegantly proportioned, tapering gently toward the base and finished with a decorative brass finial. Encircling the neck of the lantern is an elaborately worked brass gallery, adorned with finely cast floral and scroll motifs. The warm patina of the brass, with visible signs of age and oxidation, adds depth and authenticity, enhancing the overall antique character of the piece. Suspended by multiple original chains converging at a matching ceiling canopy, the lantern maintains a balanced and graceful silhouette. When lit, the lantern emits a soft, atmospheric glow, with the textured glass creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. The interior silhouette visible through the glass suggests its original use as an oil or early electric fixture, adding to its historical charm. A highly decorative and evocative lighting piece, ideal for both traditional and eclectic interiors, this lantern embodies the craftsmanship and romantic aesthetic of turn-of-the-century European design. When purchased the lantern will be carefully wrapped up and packed in a way to avoid any damages in transport. As soon as shipped you will receive the tracking number for your package. If you have any additional questions regarding this piece please feel free to contact me. Happy shopping!
