These lanterns can be seen complimenting homes, businesses,
campus's, and towns throughout the United States. Each lantern, with a
meticulous attention to detail, is hand-made by David John and his team
from over one hundred copper pieces that are hand-cut, molded, soldered,
and custom finished. The corners of each lantern are constructed of multiple
pieces for strength and durability. All glass is double thick and placed
into channels that provide easy access to the glass for cleaning or replacement.
The lanterns can be enjoyed with you choice of electrification, with one
or more electric candles, chimney, or simulated gas burner. Either way
you choose to enjoy the light, the lanterns have a full door on one side
which allows for easy access. The standard finish on our lanterns is hand-rubbed,
which develops a natural patina over time. However, you can choose a hand
painted finish or a custom patina for an additional cost. Mounting options
include post mount, wall mount, pillar mount, or as a hanging fixture.
All wall lanterns that are flush mount utilize a concealed bracket system.
Wall lanterns that are not flush mount will use a hand forged iron bracket.
Your lantern will be customize for which ever mounting option you decide
on. If you can't find the size you need, don't worry, we can adapt any
of our lanterns to the size of your choice.
