20th Century French Brass and Glass Tapered Lantern

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
Elegant in its simplicity, this early 20th-century French lantern is a timeless example of classic design with a warm, timeworn character. Crafted from brass, the fixture features a gracefully tapered rectangular frame, fitted with clear glass panels on all sides and accented with traditional finials at the crown. The soft patina of the brass gives the lantern a lived-in elegance, rich with quiet history.

Inside, a central three-light candelabra with faux wax-drip candle sleeves offers warm, ambient light. The interior is suspended on a slender brass stem that echoes the lantern’s vertical lines, enhancing its balanced proportions. A curved brass gallery at the base adds a subtle decorative flourish, while the original canopy and chain allow for secure and stylish hanging.

Perfectly suited for an entryway, stairwell, or sheltered outdoor setting, this lantern blends seamlessly into both traditional and transitional interiors, offering a refined architectural touch.

This is an antique and having been around for a long time, it will show signs of wear. Antique pieces have very much sought-after character and associated flaws. Please review photos for condition & contact us with questions!
