About the Item
This exquisite pair of 19th-century horse-drawn carriage lanterns is a remarkable example of functional yet elegant craftsmanship from the era. Dating back to the second half of the 19th century, these lanterns were designed for oil use and feature a beautiful combination of materials and finishes.
The lanterns are constructed with lacquered black metal and brass, offering a striking contrast between the glossy black surface and the warm golden tones of the brass. The hexagonal design of the lantern body is enhanced with beveled glass panels, allowing the light to disperse beautifully and creating a captivating glow when lit. Each lantern is further adorned with verre églomisé reflectors, a specialized technique where glass is gilded on the reverse side, adding an additional element of luxury and refinement.
These lanterns were not only practical for illuminating roads and pathways but also served as a statement of sophistication for their owners. The long brass stems and intricate detailing highlight the skilled craftsmanship of the time, making these lanterns a stunning decorative addition to any collection of antique lighting or carriage memorabilia.
Features:
• Crafted from lacquered black metal, brass, and beveled glass.
• Reflectors in verre églomisé for enhanced luminosity.
• Original design for oil-based lighting.
This unique pair of carriage lanterns embodies the elegance and innovation of 19th-century design, making them a perfect acquisition for collectors or those seeking a touch of historic charm in their interiors.
