Each has a four-sided faceted frame fitted with textured molded-glass panels and is suspended from a short decorative chain of flattened, twisted links. The ironwork is particularly appealing, with scrolling flourishes and small hand-worked canopies that give the lanterns a surprisingly distinctive presence despite their modest scale. Both retain a richly weathered rust patina that softens the metal and adds to their character. The lanterns are currently unelectrified and would require wiring before use; no visible cracks were observed in the glass panels. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e Their petite scale is one of their great advantages, allowing them to bring the character of old French ironwork to spaces where a larger lantern would feel too imposing. Hung as a pair in an entryway, hallway, small dining area, or covered terrace, they would create a warm, intimate pool of light, while the textured glass and wonderfully weathered iron retain plenty of presence even when unlit. The combination of delicate scrollwork, softened rust patina, and matching proportions gives the pair a romantic, distinctly French character that feels decorative without being precious. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eNo electrical wiring included.\u003cbr\u003eEach measures approx. 17¾\" high x 7½\" x 7½\"   \u003cbr\u003eEach measures approx. 45cm high x 19cm x 19cm  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54403671359826,"sku":"25555","price":633.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC05688_d933ae71-07e0-4477-87da-5f90170e895a.jpg?v=1787823426","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/pair-of-petite-french-hand-forged-iron-and-molded-glass-lanterns-c-1930-173-4","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
