Are Brass Light Gallery Lanterns available in Antique Copper metal finish?

Our Antique Copper finish involves copper plating the brass components. The parts are then toned to an earthy reddish-brown color. After assembly, the entire Antique Copper lantern is waxed sealed. If you'd like to receive a physical sample of this metal finish, or any of the others we offer, please contact our sales team.

Can I use an LED in the European Country Lantern Pendant?

All of our exterior lanterns are compatible for use with incandescent, CFL or LED bulbs interchangeably, so its just a matter of personal preference. When considering LED bulbs, we recommend a 2700K color rating to achieve a warmer light. This rating scale can be found on the box with the wattage equivalents. The type of art glass panel you choose for your lantern can affect your bulb choice. Translucent art glass panels such as: Gold White Iridescent, Cream, Pearl, Honey Ripple Opaline, Moonlight Billow, and White Opal mask the bulb. More transparent art glass panel choices such as Waterfall, Clear Seeded, and Fountain soften the bulb, but it is still visible through the glass panel.

What is Overlay?

Many of our indoor and outdoor lanterns offer an Overlay choice. Overlay is a decorative design element that is placed over the Art Glass Panels and built into the frame of the lantern. The Overlay emphasizes certain architectural styles. For example, our Studio Lantern family offers Prairie Overlay (Prairie Style), Foursquare Overlay (Craftsman Style), Macintosh Overlay (Arts & Crafts), and No Overlay (Modern/Contemporary). Depending on the details of your home such as the shapes or panes of windows, wall cladding, or other considerations, the Overlay will complement the architecture. If you need assistance choosing the best Overlay for your interior or exterior lanterns, please contact our sales team for expert advice.

I have an older fixture no longer produced by Brass Light Gallery. Angie and the team were extremely helpful in identifying and producing the replacement (lost) parts to get my fixture up and functioning again. They did this all remotely and shipped the parts promptly. Highly recommend!

Brass Light Gallery is such an amazing resource: they can build your lighting dream. Angela in the sales room was just the best: listened carefully to what we were trying to accomplish and guided us through the process. She was a delight to work with and she persisted until she found EXACTLY what we were looking for: three sconces to match my Brass Light Gallery pendants from 20 years ago! We are so pleased!

Always a fantastic experience with Brass Light Gallery. Their customer service goes above and beyond and their products are of the highest quality. It is great to support true artisans that create timeless and beautiful light fixtures that are made to last multiple generations. While certainly on the high end price-wise, their fixtures are well worth the investment.

AMAZING!!! Breathtaking! Simply beautiful!! We are beyond impressed with the quality of these lovely fixtures and beyond impressed with the sales help from Janel. Janel was outstanding to work with! She took the time to understand that we wanted to modernize our 25 year old home with updated lighting. She asked about style, dimensions, pictures and layout information and helped us pick out coordinated fixtures for all rooms. Honest, very helpful but no pressure felt. We ordered 14 beautifully modern fixtures for the main level of our home. We live in MN and the lights came very well packaged and cared for. Our local electrician found installation easy and intuitive and commented many times on how high quality these fixtures were. "very well made, very very nice"!!! Am already planning the next lights we would like to update. We will definitely be ordering from brass light gallery again. HIGHLY recommend using this amazing company! Thank you Janel!!
