Beautiful Lantern Light Fixtures

Shield-Shaped Light Fixture | I love the unique shape of this small lantern. I can picture a pair of these hung over nightstands on either side of a bed in place of lamps.

Rustic Black Metal Lantern | Another glass-free option for easy cleaning and dusting. If you’re going to go for a lantern without glass, I recommend finding one with curved lines and special details like this one to avoid the outdated-looking, overly simplified modern farmhouse look that was so popular a few years ago. Something that leans more traditional will have more staying power.

Elegant Gold Lantern | This gold lantern would be right at home in the most refined modern traditional style homes, or homes that lean a little more modern with glamorous touches here and there. I would love to see two or three of these lanterns over an island with the curved lines of the lanterns beautifully offsetting all the straight lines of the cabinetry below.

White and Gold Scalloped Lantern | This delightful little lantern in white and gold looks like an expensive designer option, but its secret is that it actually comes from a children’s store, so it’s much less costly than you might think.

Bell-Shaped Lantern | This light fixture is the closest that I’ve found to the bell-shaped lantern that we have hanging in our front hall. This shape of lantern is truly timeless and reflects light beautifully, but I do have to admit that it comes with some regular cleaning needs because it does tend to collect flies and dust. Still, it’s quick to take care of, and I think it’s worth it for the beautiful look it brings to our home.

Modern Globe Lantern | This more modern or mcm style of lantern is open at the bottom, so you won’t run into the fly collecting problem with this option. 🙂 This is a stunning, affordable option as a chandelier over a table or as a pair of pendants over an island for a more modern home, or a hit of modern style in a more traditional one.

Petite Black Metal Lantern | This dainty lantern features curves and detailing that make it feel special despite its small stature. I would love to see this in a small entryway or hallway, or for those who like a trio of smaller pendants over their kitchen island.

Aged Brass Lantern | This piece is absolute perfection for those of us with a very strong traditional decorating style. The aged brass finish, beautifully detailed shape, and curved lines mean this piece is truly timeless and something that you’ll want to keep forever, even as decoration styles change for other elements of your home.
