Midcentury Bell Jar Lantern with Clear Glass Dome and Aged Metal Frame

About the Item

This midcentury bell jar lantern offers a refined take on a traditional form, blending classic proportions with subtle modernity. The clear handblown glass dome—tapering gently to a rounded base—provides full visibility of the four-light candelabra suspended at its center. The frame features a warm, aged patina that mimics the appearance of antique bronze, though it is more likely brass or iron. A matching collar secures the shade and supports the interior stem, while a flat clear glass bell adds historical reference and visual balance overhead. The lantern hangs from three matching chain supports and includes its original canopy. Rewired for US use, this piece brings timeless character to transitional and traditional spaces alike—whether installed in an entry, stairwell, or above a powder room sink. The patinated metal framework and clean glass lines complement both antique and contemporary interiors, and its scale offers decorative presence without overwhelming the room. A versatile design rooted in 18th- and 19th-century British and French forms, this lantern works particularly well in spaces that benefit from warm ambient light and architectural simplicity.
