A striking vintage copper ship’s lantern, beautifully crafted by Erik Ohlsson of Helsingborg, Sweden. Measuring 18 inches tall and 10 inches in diameter, this heavy marine lantern features a gleaming copper body with a substantial glass Fresnel-style lens designed to cast a bright, focused beam at sea. Sturdy brass side guards, a top carry handle, and the maker’s stamp give it authentic maritime character.
Originally built for shipboard use, this piece now makes an impressive decorative accent — whether displayed as-is, wired for electric light, or kept as a collectible for its seafaring history.
