About the Item

Period arts and crafts iron and original amber mica lantern. Wired with 5 feet of electrical cord, and comes with 3 feet of antique brass chain and bronze canopy. Arts and Crafts and Prairie Style electric lighting fixtures are unique expressions of craft, creativity, and technology. The elegant lines, rich colors, striking forms, and masterful craftsmanship of these fixtures continue to resonate strongly with twenty-first century audiences. The flowering of Arts and Crafts lighting corresponded with an increased demand for electricity in the early twentieth century. Artisans approached the new technology with a modern aesthetic – simple, functional, and tasteful forms – instead of looking to past styles or applying excessive ornament. Handcrafted fixtures in beautiful metals, adorned with shades of glass or mica to temper harsh light, became important artistic enhancements to Prairie Style or Arts and Crafts interiors. Some firms, such as the Craftsman Workshops, Stickley Brothers, and Roycroft, even displayed their fixtures in model rooms, complete with complementary furniture, metalwork, and textiles.
