About the Item

Huge Early 20th Century English Lantern Made from cast metal this monster of a light measures 30inches tall. With its original hanging hook still in place. Likely to have been a bracketed as an outdoor streetlight at one point, now converted and rewired for modern day use. The Glass sections have been replaced as has some metal repair work across its bottom section frame. It weights close to 20kg and would need to be professionally support hung due to its weight and size.

This light has been updated with repairs to its metal frame and has new inserted glass panels throughout.
