FAQs

Originating in 18th-century France, hall lanterns were initially designed to shield candle flames from drafts in large entryways and corridors. As lighting technology evolved, these structural fixtures were adapted for gas and electricity while retaining their ornate metal framework.

These fixtures are constructed using cast bronze or brass frames, frequently finished with gold leaf gilding or ormolu technique. The side enclosures feature clear mouth-blown flat or curved convex glass panels.

Authentic period lanterns feature hand-chased metal detailing, original cast joins, and natural patination or wear on high points. The glass panels often display subtle irregularities, air bubbles, or distortion consistent with historic glass production.

Suspended in entry halls, stairwells, or above central kitchen islands, these lanterns provide structured architectural lighting. The metallic tone pairs effectively with crisp architectural moulding, neutral wall palettes, and contemporary furniture.

Dust metal surfaces using a soft dry cloth or soft-bristled brush, avoiding chemical cleaners that strip gilding. Clean the glass elements by applying glass cleaner to a microfibre cloth rather than spraying directly onto the fixture.
