Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1930s:
Knurled brass thumb turns on the pillars: early twentieth-century glass retaining fittings.
Thick bevelled glass panels: wheel-cut starburst centres cut into heavy plate glass.
Cast brass frame: natural age darkening and gentle rubbing to the high points.
Internal three-light cluster: modern electrical conversion inside an earlier lantern frame.

This French Rococo Revival hall lantern, dating from 1930, is cast in a heavy gauge warm gold brass with a mellow gilded patina. The four-sided ceiling light has four curved bevelled and cut glass panels, each featuring an etched central starburst decoration. Ornate architectural details include a scrolled filigree cresting at the top, turned side columns, and acanthus leaf finials. The structure houses multiple candle-style bulb fittings on an internal central stem and comes complete with a ceiling mounting fixture. Measuring 44 cm high, 28 cm wide, and 28 cm deep and weighing 8.9 kg, the lantern is designed to be suspended from the ceiling in a grand hallway, corridor, or entrance foyer to provide overhead illumination.

FAQs

Originating in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, hall lanterns were designed to protect candle flames from draughts in stairwells and entryways before later adapting to gas and electric illumination.

Authentic examples feature cast or pressed brass frames, glass panesoften with bevelled edges or etched starburst motifsand internal light fittings.

Look for natural patination on the brass frame, cast moulding marks, hand-cut or etched glass details, and historical wiring conversions inside the central stem.

Suspend the lantern high in an entryway, stairwell, or hallway to serve as an architectural focal point that adds historical depth to contemporary spaces.

Dust the brass and glass regularly with a soft dry cloth, clean glass panels using a mild non-abrasive glass cleaner, and avoid harsh chemical polishes on aged brass finishes.
