About the Item

Antique French Carriage Lantern – Owned by President Émile Loubet – Lucien Veuillot, Paris Condition: Authentic with a crack of the front glass, but still stable. Excellent Provenance This rare antique French carriage lantern is a true collector’s piece — formerly belonging to Émile Loubet, President of France (1899–1906). A symbol of refined craftsmanship and political history, the lantern bears the maker’s plate reading “Lanterne Trouvée – Lucien Veuillot, Paris,” a renowned lantern manufacturer of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Crafted in polished metal with a large convex glass lens, a chimney-style vented top, and a carrying/mounting handle, this piece exemplifies the elegance of the Belle Époque era. Its provenance — ownership by a French head of state — makes it not just a decorative object but a museum-worthy artifact. Details: • Provenance: Formerly owned by President Émile Loubet (1899–1906) • Maker: Lucien Veuillot, Paris • Origin: France • Material: Likely nickel-plated brass with glass lens • Function: Originally oil-fueled; suitable for display or conversion • Condition: Excellent vintage condition with beautiful patina and minor age-related wear An extraordinary piece for serious collectors of political memorabilia, French antiques, or historic lighting. Rare to find in such well-preserved condition — even rarer with this kind of provenance. You may see attached an original period photograph of the car belonging to President Émile Loubet, showing the same style of Lucien Veuillot lanterns mounted. This exact lantern comes from that vehicle.
