Large Pair of Windsor Style Copper Street Lanterns Supported on Sophisticated Spiral Twist Wall Brackets

1920 - 1940
Description

A large pair of Windsor style copper street lanterns supported on sophisticated spiral twist wall brackets, the lanterns in the style of William Sugg or Foster & Pullen.

This pair of lanterns each consist of a finial to the top below with tented roof leading down to decorative finials to each corner.

The square tapering body with glazed sides and opening door is supported on a wrought iron four-pronged cradle, all supported on sophisticated spiral twist wall bracket.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Windsor style lanterns feature a four-sided tapered glass structure topped with a stepped or domed copper canopy and decorative finial, historically used for gas and early electric street lighting in British municipalities.

Authentic period street lanterns were constructed using hand-formed copper sheet metal for the hood, clear glass panels, and wrought or cast iron for supporting wall brackets.

Authentic pieces display soldered seams rather than modern spot welds, authentic verdigris oxidisation on copper surfaces, hand-worked iron brackets, and evidence of historical gas-to-electric conversions.

Lanterns of this scale are suited to flanking exterior entrance doors, illuminating courtyard walls, or providing architectural lighting within expansive interior hallways and stairwells.

Clean glass panels with non-abrasive cleaners and dust the metalwork using a soft brush; avoid chemical polishes to protect the natural green verdigris oxidisation on the copper.
