Old iron and glass lanterns, Italy, early 20th century.

A pair of wrought iron lanterns featuring a hexagonal structure in the shape of a truncated pyramid, enriched with scroll and twisted details that reflect the craftsmanship of the time. The bevelled and engraved glass creates a gentle play of light, evenly and evocatively diffusing the illumination from a single central source. Dating from Italy in the first half of the 20th century, these lanterns are an example of design that combines functionality and decoration, suitable for spaces requiring a touch of historical elegance.
