Pair of Hexagonal Copper Lanterns with Domed Tops
-
Description
This pair of French hexagonal copper lanterns from the 20th century reflects solid craftsmanship and restrained, traditional design. Each lantern features clear glass panels set within a copper frame, topped by a simple domed cap. The metal shows a weathered patina consistent with age and outdoor exposure, adding surface depth without altering the structural clarity of the form. Designed for a single bulb, the lanterns produce focused, even illumination suitable for entryways, covered outdoor areas, or interior spaces that benefit from defined light rather than broad diffusion. Their geometry is straightforward and balanced, allowing them to integrate with a range of architectural styles—classical, transitional, or mixed interiors where antique metalwork provides contrast. Whether installed in a foyer, along a sheltered patio, or in a garden structure, the pair functions as both lighting and a subtle historical reference. The design is practical, durable, and visually adaptable.
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!
