About the Item

A French brass lantern from the 19th century, with a hexagonal body and glass panels, this stunning piece embodies both artistry and history. Born in France during a time of political change, the lantern draws attention with its refined silhouette, featuring elegant S-scroll volutes that gracefully crown the hexagonal frame. The glass panels are delicately accented with petite beads, offering a soft, reflective glow. At the top, Rococo-style cartouches add a touch of ornamental beauty, while the three lights, each resting on simple, finely shaped bobèches, are supported by a central shaft. With its warm golden hue and flowing curves, this brass lantern brings a refined and sophisticated atmosphere to any room, evoking the grandeur of 19th-century French design.
