Originally made to encase the light of a flickering flame, lanterns were first designed for function, not fashion. Today, they incorporate both. Take this one for example: Hanging from a chain suspension, this piece features a cast aluminum construction awash in a corona bronze finish, exuding traditional appeal. A hammered glass shade diffuses light from three incandescent bulbs up to 60 W, perfect for illuminating your space. Plus, this piece is rated for wet locations, so it’s perfect for greeting guests on your front porch.
