FAQs

During the 19th century, copper lanterns were widely utilised for interior halls and exterior entryways due to the metals durability and resistance to corrosion. These fixtures evolved from functional oil or candle enclosures into decorative gas and electric ceiling pendants.

Lanterns from this period were typically handcrafted using sheet copper or brass, joined with riveted or soldered seams, and fitted with clear glass panes. Over time, exposure to air and moisture creates a natural verdigris oxidisation layer on the copper surface.

Authentic period lanterns often feature hand-cut glass, irregular solder marks, folded metal edges, and genuine surface oxidisation rather than applied paint finishes. Original chain links and cast metal finials also help confirm 19th-century origin.

Suspended in an entrance hall, stairwell, or over a dining area, a copper lantern serves as an architectural focal point. Pairing natural verdigris metalwork with neutral wall tones or minimalist contemporary furniture creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Preserve the natural verdigris patina by dusting the metal frame regularly with a dry, soft cloth, avoiding abrasive polishes or chemical cleaners. Clean the glass panels using a mild glass cleaner applied directly to a microfibre cloth to prevent liquid from seeping into the metal joints.
