Condition
Overall very good condition. he iron surfaces with some scattered very minor surface scratches and abrasions throughout and minor wear to the patina concentrated to the edges of the lantern, consistent with age and gentle handling. The original glass with very minor scattered air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent in its production. One glass pane presents with two vertical inclusions within the glass, inherent to the manufacturing process. Two other panes with some concentrated thin lines of irregularities inherent to the manufacturing process. A highly architectural work that epitomizes the Arts & Crafts aesthetic.
