Hammered Glass Black Iron Hurricane Lantern

This is a hurricane lantern that pairs a clear hammered glass cylinder with a slim black iron frame. The glass sits within three upright supports on a round base, giving an open, industrial look that keeps the focus on the flame inside. Measuring 18 x 18 x 31cm and weighing 2.5kg, it holds a tealight or a small pillar candle, casting a soft, flickering glow through the textured glass. The hammered surface catches and scatters candlelight, adding gentle movement to the light it throws.

We think it suits mantelpieces, console tables, dining tables and windowsills where you want a warm point of light. The pared-back black and clear palette works with both modern and more rustic rooms, and it looks especially good grouped with a taller matching lantern for a layered candlelight effect. Use a cluster of two or three at different heights along a table runner, or set one alone on a shelf for a quieter feel. It works equally well lit or unlit as a piece of decor.

The lantern is made from glass and iron, with the glass giving a hammered texture and the metal frame finished in black. The base is broad enough to keep it steady on flat surfaces. To care for it, wipe the glass with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to keep it clear, and dry the iron frame fully to protect the finish. Trim the candle wick before lighting, keep a lit candle attended and let the glass cool before handling or cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the glass and metal. Made in the United Kingdom.

Can I use it with other lanterns?

Yes. It pairs well with a taller matching hurricane lantern for a layered look, and grouping several at different heights creates a fuller candlelight display.

Is the glass texture on the surface or inside?

The hammered texture is part of the glass itself, which scatters candlelight and adds gentle movement to the glow when a candle is lit.
