A pair of timber and glass lanterns under distressed white roofs, one tall, one smaller.
Richard is a set of two lanterns, a tall one at 68.5 cm and a smaller one at 51.5 cm, each a fir timber frame with window-pane glass panels and a hinged door that latches with an antique brass clasp. A distressed white metal roof sits on top, pierced with a row of vent holes and finished with a ring finial. Candles not included.
The two heights sit well together by a door, a hearth or along a console, and the worn white roofs read soft against the light timber. Open the door to set a pillar candle inside, then close it so the flame glows through the glass. The pair works indoors or in a sheltered outdoor spot.

How to style it
A pair likes a little asymmetry.
Stand the two together by a front door or hearth with pillar candles, with more from lanterns.
Split them up, one on a console and one on the floor, to carry the look across a room.
Set them on a covered porch or verandah for a soft evening glow.
Use flameless LED pillars for a flame-free glow, indoors or out.
Stylist's Tip
Set the candles at different heights inside each lantern so the pair reads as collected rather than matched.
Care & Keeping
Dust the timber with a soft dry cloth and wipe the glass clear. Keep them dry and out of direct weather, the timber and painted roof can mark if left damp. Open the door to place or trim the candle, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many come in the set?
Two lanterns, a tall one at 68.5 cm and a smaller one at 51.5 cm.
What candle fits?
A pillar candle sits behind the glass door of each lantern, and a flameless LED pillar works just as well. Candles not included.
How do I open it?
Each lantern has a hinged glass door with an antique brass latch. Unlatch it to place or light the candle.
Can they go outside?
Best in a sheltered spot like a covered porch. The timber and painted roof are not made for direct weather.
Will they match the photo?
Each is hand-finished, so the timber tone and the worn white roof vary a little from piece to piece.
Because Richard is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture, and tone are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.

I have never been a clock-watcher, but all that changed with Maude. I can't stop looking at her. Out of the box, slip in an AA battery and on to the wall, just like that! She is simply gorgeous.
This is a present for my horse loving daughter in law. I'm sure it will take pride of place on her mantle piece. Again I love this Web site which I will be visiting often.
Found this beautiful elegant Swan for my garden online via a search at Chateau Living. A great price, quality and excellent ordering and delivery. Would definitely purchase from this business again. They have such a beautiful variety of products.
It was my testing the waters first purchase to check out this new store & what’s on offer. I loved the idea of supplying cast iron cute animal figurines as they’re practical, good looking, solid durable material, great rust finish (no need to buy expensive rust effect paint). Just ready to weather and brings a smile on your dial. I placed my frog with his hands up as if in religious praying gesture next to the concrete funny sign scored at Vinnies reading: grant me patience Lord but hurry - I believe the praying frog and the sign go comically together. I’m thinking of getting the other frog too in its hilarious pose possibly in green patina for contrast. I can confirm it’s heavy cast iron with attractive rust patina. These casts fill the gap in the market dominated by laser cut cortina steel offerings. Just something old school different and complimentary to your garden /house decor. Pleased it’s introduced to Australian market and once for change not made in China… but in France known for its cast iron tradition. We own 18th century French anvil won at an antique auction which is our proud possession so happy to score more in heavy casts.
This may not show on the store website that well but they’re actually old gold colour. It’s lightweight thin metal so perhaps inside or sheltered outdoor space would suit them the best as it may rust out & some fragile parts of the tail break exposed to the weather. They’re as large as described, cleverly designed for packaging - legs are separate with tightening screw. They make an impact due to their size & fit almost any decor with the colour & style.
I was so happy with Chateau Living. Brilliant customer service & speedy delivery. How lucky we are to have an Australian option giving us all these beautiful items for our homes. Highly recommend
I bought this piece as I could see it in my mind's eye having an suspended impact with my high end Brazilian quartz crystal display. Such a well made piece, sturdy and if I didn't know better, from another time. I am planning a candle holder from Chateau Living to complete this display, just having trouble deciding from the elegant range they have available. Very pleased :) Who would have thought you could combine Brazil with French Provincial so perfectly.
