AUCTION ENDING 08.05.26 AT 10AM EDT. Pricing will be charged to the winner via invoice.

This Gentle Giant Lantern was made for our de Gournay residency and is ex-display. It was made in the traditional manner using copper and brass. We reimagined the Gentle Giant for the de Gournay showroom, this time with a hand-hammered nickel backplate. All sales final.

The oversized, rectangular case with glazed front, side and hinged door combine elegantly with a rope detail and orb-like finials to lend both personality and warmth to the inside or outside of a home. The hand drawn glass refracts light with a subtle ripple and offers a window into the chalky white interior. Each forest green lantern is fitted with a chimney piece and bulb shade that draws on the style of 18th century wall lanterns, modernised with an IP rating and electrical bulb.

Materials

Painted brass, copper and hand-drawn glass and a nickel backplate.
