Rectangular Lantern – Iron, Glass, Copper
Product description
This tall lantern (17 × 17 × 60 cm) is a copper-coloured iron and glass candle holder designed for calm, atmospheric lighting indoors. The slim, rectangular silhouette and gridded window panels give it a clear architectural look, while the warm metallic finish adds softness to shelves, floors, and console tables. A hinged door makes it easy to place and replace a pillar candle or LED candle safely inside.
From the image, the lantern features a structured frame with crossbars, clear glass panels, and a vented top that helps heat escape during use. The integrated handle makes it simple to move, whether you want it by the fireplace, next to a sofa, or grouped with smaller lanterns for a balanced arrangement. At 60 cm high, it has enough presence to stand on the floor without feeling heavy in the room.
The copper-toned finish leans bohemian, but the straight lines and restrained detailing also suit Scandinavian interiors—especially when paired with natural textures like linen, oak, stoneware, and wool. The result is a practical lantern that brings candlelight into everyday settings without adding visual noise.

Why this product stands out
Many lanterns look decorative but are awkward to use. This design focuses on everyday practicality: the door opening gives proper access for placing a candle, the tall proportions protect the flame from drafts, and the glass panels allow light to spread evenly in all directions. The copper-coloured metal brings warmth without relying on ornate patterning, so it works well in pared-back homes as well as more eclectic spaces.
How it works in the home
Use it on the floor beside a lounge chair, in the hallway for a welcoming glow, or on a dining table as a centrepiece (especially with an LED candle for long evenings). The narrow footprint fits well on a kitchen shelf, a bedroom dresser, or a window ledge where you want soft light after dark. It also works outdoors in covered areas such as a sheltered balcony or porch—always placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
Details
- Material / texture: Smooth metal frame with a warm copper tone; clear glass panels for maximum light output
- Design: Tall rectangular lantern with grid-style window framing, vented top, and carry handle
- Usage & care tips: Use with a pillar candle or LED candle. If using real candles, keep the flame centred, never leave unattended, and allow the lantern to cool before moving. Wipe glass with a soft cloth; dry the metal after cleaning to help preserve the finish.
