About the Item

1980s brass and glass pendant light with a maritime soul and modernist edge. A rare lantern-inspired design that casts a warm, atmospheric glow, perfect as a statement in lofts, coastal homes, or contemporary interiors. A pendant light with real character: bold, elegant, and unmistakably unique. Crafted in the 1980/90s, this piece carries the spirit of the sea into contemporary interiors. The lamp’s design takes cues from old ship lanterns, yet translates them into something far more refined. The frosted glass shade glows with a soft, atmospheric light, while the brass cage and canopy add structure and presence. Subtle wooden accents at the crown bring warmth and a touch of craftsmanship, balancing the industrial lines with natural detail. Far from being a simple reproduction, this light has its own sculptural quality. Its circular brass frame recalls atomic-age geometry, while the lantern form grounds it in maritime tradition. This rare crossover makes it equally compelling in a modernist interior, a coastal retreat, or an industrial loft. If you like this pendant in our pictures then you will love it in real life. Mind you, it is wired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage in the USA as well and our fair price for this beauty even includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum height x diameter: 35 x 11.5 inches. Height without chain/canopy: 12.5inches. * Our pricing reflects the free shipping, rarity, craftsmanship, and pristine condition of this piece.

Stunning Victorian Lighting Gothic Brass & Mouth Blown Art Glass Pendant Lantern
Located in Lisse, NL
Graceful and all handcrafted antique light fixture. This early Arts & Crafts era pendant has an aesthetic beauty that you don't find anymore in this day and age. It has the most pleasing to the eye shape and amber color and the handcrafted brass has a marvelous patina. In images 2 and 3 you can see that this unique light fixture started its life as (and still is) a candle lantern. Because of the Gothic quatrefoil details this may have been a sanctuary lamp at the entrance of a church or monastery. The beautifully patinated brass is all hand-crafted, but the unique art glass shade with its unique hand-etched, flowery patterns and amazing color is what makes this antique truly special. Have you also noticed the 'stand-alone' etched oak branches with acorns? They symbolize growth and unlimited potential since an acorn can grow into a huge oak tree that, by itself, can seed an entire forest. Both with the light switched on and off you could not wish for a more stylish, European antique fixture. It is of the kind that you certainly don't find anymore in this day and age. This ideal hallway or bedroom pendant light...
