New England Ship's Lantern in antique brass, 1 light, clear glass. Size shown: 5"wide x 9-1/4"high, extends 4-3/4". Available in other finishes, sizes and glass. New England Ship's lantern was used in the early 18th and 19th centuries. The sloped top was an efficient ventilator that kept drafts and wind from extinguishing the candles. Today, this lantern remains a classic early lantern and is a worthy choice for practically any house or building. All of our handcrafted lanterns are made of a heavy gauge copper or brass with cast brass structural supports (no punch riveting, all hand-soldered, no steel parts). Custom sizing and custom trim are available. We can change any lantern to gas. All lanterns come in wall mount, post top or hanging versions. We can make sconces to match or smaller garden models. We can make any of our lanterns ADA compliant. Several aging processes are applied to the copper or brass to give rich, interesting patinas. You can choose the light cluster option and glass to meet your needs. Our lanterns are well suited for interior as well as exterior applications and hold up in extreme climates and salt-water conditions. Made in the USA and built to last a life time! UL APPROVED
