Few lighting designs have as much charm as lanterns—they are whimsical and detailed, with nods to tradition that feel warm and welcoming. As we’ve created our robust assortment of lantern lighting, we’ve sought to include a variety of styles to maintain a fresh, contemporary collection while still paying homage to the beauty of traditional lanterns. These styles make for an array of textures, finishes, and shapes that are endearing, whether the overall feel is sophisticated or playful.

The most common construction material for our lantern lighting is metal, such as brass, but our collection also includes more organic materials like wood and rattan. The frames are sturdy, making each lantern as long-standing in quality as it is in aesthetic. And, when it comes to looks, every piece in our lantern lighting collection includes simple but impactful design choices that give them a unique profile. From twists in the metal or a rounded metal frame to carefully considered chain details, our lanterns speak volumes to the aesthetic of your space.

Even the bulbs in lantern lighting make a statement. Slender candelabra-style lights are deeply reminiscent of tradition, while contemporary round bulbs give lanterns a subtle update. Glass is another consideration—while some lanterns within our assortment are enclosed by glass, others are open to create an airy feel.

Lastly, lantern lighting comes in a variety of forms. Whether you’re looking for lantern pendant lighting fixtures to hang above a kitchen island or sconces to mount within hallways, these charming fixtures can be included in your home in a variety of ways. Many of our lanterns also are damp rated, making them perfect additions to the bathroom or covered outdoor areas. If you’re still searching, our wide selection of outdoor lighting makes it easy to find something suited to your space, whether you’re illuminating the indoors or out.
