About the Item
Pair of Antique English Copper Lanterns that were removed from the Birmingham, England Railroad Station many years ago. This particular Pair of Antique English Copper Lanterns were originally gas lite and our in home for many years. Our Old Plank electrical department, converted it to electricity and chose to do so, with a large mogul socket, which allows for up to a 500 watt bulb. In purchasing antiques for over 25 years, we have never seen Antique Copper Lantern of this scale before and they do make one heck of a statement. Currently the copper has begun to tarnish and is quite a bit darker than these images we had taken a while ago. You can have them either way, for we are happy to polish the Copper Lanterns again or take them as is?

Dublin Lanterns Solid Bronze Copper Dome Holophane Dual Glass Shades c1930s
Located in Chicago, IL
Dublin Lantern in Bronze with Copper Dome and Holophane Dual Glass Shades c1938 (2) Available. Old Plank has been importing from Ireland since 1992 and these Dublin Holophane Bronze and Copper Lanterns must be one of our all-time favorite discoveries. Not only are the Dublin Lanterns beautiful, but their build quality is insane for they are more like precision works of art, than commercial lighting. The exterior glass is both frosted and ribbed, while the interior has a double Holophane inner and outer shade, which we have never seen prior. To us, it is obvious that there was no budget in mind when these were designed in the 1930s, for it would have been difficult to make them more expensive to produce. Whomever the manufacturer was and there are some experts who think it was Bleeco, on St Martin’s Place, which was founded in 1921 in Brighton by Ernest Heaps, who remained its managing director until 1961 when the firm was purchased by Haven Foundries. While others thought they were French produced. The fact that the interiors of the lanterns have the Dual-wall English Holophane shades, I would tend to lean towards Bleeco. The Bronze and Copper Lanterns were installed in the city of Dublin in 1938 by Mr F. X. Algar, who was then head of the Lighting Section of the Irish Electricity Supply Board. Originally these lanterns lit O'Connell Street mounted on beautiful double armed art deco concrete...
