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.
