English Midcentury Bell Jar Lantern with Two Lights in Handblown Glass

About the Item

A refined English bell jar lantern in clear handblown glass and polished metal, dating to the mid-20th century. This compact light fixture features a domed glass canopy suspended by three delicate chains and a classic bell-shaped body beneath. The lantern houses a two-light candelabra cluster supported by a turned metal stem, offering warm ambient light while preserving sightlines with its transparent form. The fixture’s restrained detailing and small scale (21 inches high by 9 inches in diameter) make it especially well-suited for hallways, powder rooms, or secondary entrances. Subtle irregularities in the glass, including light waviness and small air bubbles, confirm the handmade nature of the vessel and add character to the piece. This lantern has been newly wired for US use and includes a length of chain for hanging. Its clean lines and traditional form make it a versatile choice for interiors blending classical and modern elements. Two are available, making this a flexible solution for cohesive lighting schemes across multiple rooms.
