Elegant 20th Century French Gilt Brass Lantern with Curved Detailing
-
Description
This refined early 20th-century French lantern showcases masterful craftsmanship with its gracefully curved gilt brass frame and neoclassical design. The cylindrical body is encased in clear glass panels, allowing for an unobstructed view of the interior’s three candle-style lights, which cast a warm and inviting glow.
The upper section features beautifully scrolled arms that extend outward, lending a sense of fluidity and balance to the piece. Delicate ornamental details, including finely cast floral motifs and intricate embellishments, further enhance its sophisticated aesthetic. The lantern is suspended from an elegant chain and a decorative ceiling canopy, making it a striking focal point for an entryway, hallway, or dining space.
Fully restored and rewired for modern use, this exquisite lantern embodies the timeless allure of antique French lighting while seamlessly blending into both classic and contemporary interiors. -
