Pair of Antique 1920s Arts & Crafts Hanging Lanterns in Metal and Handmade Glass

About the Item

A rare set of two matching antique lanterns (pendant lamps). The lanterns have no maker's markings but most likely dates from the early 1900s. Their design is strongly inspired by the Arts and Crafts mouvement (1880-1920). The lanterns have been sourced in Northeastern France. These antique lanterns are made to be suspended. The structure of the lanterns is made of metal, most likely a copper alloy. The inside is made of slightly amber colored/smokey glass that has been mouth blown into the wrought metal frame in one single piece. When lightened, the light does not only shine through the body of the lantern but also through the small, circular glass sections on the top and on the bottom of the lantern. The lanterns are sold unwired. There is a hole on the top of each lantern for easy wiring, i.e. fit for a wire with a light socket. They can thus easily be adapted to any voltage (see photo). The lanterns are sold without lighting chains. In very good vintage condition. The lanterns have no missing metal parts or broken glass sections. They have only been roughly cleaned (the metal sections have not been polished) in order to keep their authentic patina. Both lanterns show wear consistent with age and use (see photos). Dimension: max diameter 21 cm/ 8 1/4", diameter base 9.5 cm/ 3 3/4", height without hanger 34 ccm/ 13 1/2", height with hanger 36 cm/ 14 1/4". Weight per piece: 1587 g / 3.5 lb and 1553 g / 3.4 lb
