The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Lanterns from nineteenth-century Paris were commonly constructed with copper or iron frames designed to withstand outdoor conditions. They typically featured glazed glass panels, vented upper canopies for gas or candle smoke release, and geometric silhouette lines suited for street lighting or entryway illumination.

Most French lanterns from this period were crafted using sheet copper, brass, or wrought iron combined with glass side panels. Copper was favoured for outdoor fixtures due to its resistance to rust and its tendency to develop a natural green verdigris patina over time.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of period craftsmanship, such as hand-soldered or riveted copper joins, slight variations in the glass thickness, and natural patination or oxidisation. Vents near the upper canopy and historic mounting brackets or ball feet also indicate period construction.

These lanterns function well as decorative accent lighting when placed on sideboards, consoles, or inside unlit fireplace hearths. Incorporating large pillar candles or modern wire lighting inside creates a focal point while highlighting the aged metal patina.

Dust metal frames gently with a dry microfibre cloth and clean glass panels with a mild glass cleaner applied directly to the cloth. Avoid abrasive polishes or chemical solvents to preserve the existing paint finish, verdigris, and historical patina.
