Somehow French tool and instrument makers know how to add a little molding here, a nick or a twist there. Here it results in a product of unsurpassed elegance and appeal. Our French Lantern was used during expeditions of the French Colonial Army while quartered in Tahiti, Saigon, Casablanca and Martinique. The reason that only a few original brass utilitarian colonial objects can be found these days is that most were melted down during WWII. This French lantern creates a statement! Measures 15 x 14.25"H
