Our
wall lanterns are hand-wrought from solid copper or brass; the traditional
metals we favor for outdoor lighting. These pieces are not polished
or lacquered but do receive a mild “antique” finish
which chemically “ages” the metal. Once exposed to weather,
natural aging takes over.
When selecting a lantern remember that the piece will be outdoors,
and should therefore be large enough to appear correct from a distance
away.
A)
Stonington Lantern Traditional proportions and style make this lantern very pleasing
to the eye. The glass guards, which bow out slightly, bring another
interesting element to this design. Available in 3 sizes.
*The small
size has an open bottom and top mounted socket.
B)
Easton Lantern
Travel the Connecticut Housatonic Valley and you will see the pyramid
shaped top of our Easton design replicated over and over.
A true New England classic. Available in 3 sizes.
*The
small size has an open bottom and top mounted socket.
C)
Barn Lantern As the wooden handle implies, these lights were originally designed
to be carried around the farm. We have adapted the design for wall
mounting. Available in 2 sizes.
