The metal is skilfully soldered around the glass with traditional tools, this handmade process means that there are weld marks on the joins of each piece, a feature that we love as it tells the story of how the product is made.
To care for your lantern we recommend wiping with a soft, dry cloth.
To remove excess candle wax, use warm water and a mild dish soap, drying immediately.
Indoor use only.
Product will get hot during use.
The Art of Understated Illumination
Design often works best when it stops trying too hard. The Sia Antique Black Iron & Glass Lantern is a masterclass in this philosophy, offering a skeletal frame that feels both modern and deeply rooted in tradition. This season, interior schemes are leaning into materials that tell a story of craftsmanship. The iron frame, skilfully soldered by hand, bears the subtle marks of the tools that shaped it. These visible joins are not flaws, they are the signatures of a handmade object, ensuring that no two pieces are identical. It is a refreshing departure from the mass-produced, bringing a sense of soul into the contemporary home.
Styling the New Mood
There is a particular pleasure in finding accessories that work across different rooms. In a minimalist hallway, a single large lantern creates a focal point that feels architectural and bold. In a more eclectic living space, grouping three different heights creates a rhythmic display that draws the eye. The antique black finish acts as a neutral, grounding softer textiles or brighter colours, while the clear glass panels allow the flickering light of a pillar candle to take centre stage. It is a piece that feels equally at home on a reclaimed oak table as it does on a sleek, industrial console.
Thoughtful Details and Craftsmanship
To maintain the integrity of the iron and glass, a few simple care steps will ensure these lanterns remain a staple of your decor for years to come. The process of traditional soldering creates a robust frame, but the finish is best preserved with gentle handling. When styling, consider the interplay of light and shadow, these lanterns are at their most effective when the dark lines of the iron are thrown into sharp relief by the glow within.

Creating a Layered Light Scheme
Atmosphere in a room is rarely about the main overhead light, it is about the layers you build beneath it. The Sia lantern provides that crucial mid-level glow that softens the edges of a space in the evening. By placing these lanterns at different levels, on the floor, a mantle, or a side table, you can manipulate the proportions of a room, making high ceilings feel more intimate or dark corners feel intentionally cosy. It is a quietly considered addition to a home that values both form and function.
