About the Item
Brass lanterns are a type of lantern typically crafted from brass, a durable and corrosion-resistant metal alloy composed primarily of copper and zinc. These lanterns are used for both functional and decorative purposes, offering illumination and ambiance in various settings.
Here are some key features and uses of brass lanterns:
Material: Brass lanterns are primarily made from brass, which is valued for its attractive golden hue, resistance to corrosion, and durability. The brass may be polished to a high shine or given a patina for a more antique or rustic appearance.
Design: Brass lanterns come in a variety of designs, ranging from traditional to contemporary styles. They may feature intricate metalwork, including decorative patterns, filigree, or embossed details. Some lanterns have clear glass panels to protect the flame or bulb inside, while others may incorporate colored or frosted glass for a different aesthetic effect.
Functionality: Brass lanterns can be used indoors or outdoors to provide illumination. They may use candles, oil lamps, or electric bulbs as a light source, depending on the design and intended use. Some brass lanterns are designed for hanging, while others are freestanding or tabletop models.
Decorative Accents: Brass lanterns serve as decorative accents in various settings, including homes, gardens, patios, and event spaces. They add a touch of warmth and elegance to any environment, whether used as standalone pieces or as part of a larger lighting scheme.
Ambiance: The soft, warm glow emitted by brass lanterns creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere, making them popular choices for outdoor gatherings, weddings, parties, or romantic dinners. They can also be used indoors to enhance the ambiance of living spaces, dining areas, or bedrooms.
Overall, brass lanterns are versatile lighting fixtures valued for their aesthetic appeal, durability, and ability to create a welcoming atmosphere in any setting.

Circular Mirror "Sun" in Golden Metal, Spain Century XX, C. 1980
Located in Lisboa, PT
During the 20th century, decorative mirrors experienced various stylistic trends, and the "Sun" mirror design emerged as a popular choice. The frame is typically made of metal, often gold or brass, which gives it a luxurious and eye-catching appeal.
The "Sun" mirror design draws inspiration from celestial motifs, with rays extending outward from the central mirror to mimic the rays of the sun. This design element symbolizes light, energy, and warmth, adding a touch of brightness and elegance to any space.
The use of golden metal in the frame reflects a preference for opulence and a desire to incorporate rich materials into home decor during the 1980s. This mirrors the influence of the Art Deco and Hollywood Regency styles, which embraced glamorous and luxurious aesthetics.
