Sloane Silver Lantern 71.5 cm in Glass and Stainless Steel

Sloane Silver Lantern 71.5 cm in Glass and Stainless Steel

The Sloane Silver lantern is a tall decorative piece with a slender architectural form, crafted from glass and stainless steel with a polished silver finish. The combination of clear glass panels and a reflective metal frame gives the design an elegant presence, whether displayed with a candle or used as a decorative object in its own right.

At 71.5 cm high, the lantern has sufficient scale to be placed directly on the floor beside a fireplace, console table, sideboard or within a spacious entrance hall. Its elongated proportions distinguish it from smaller tabletop lanterns and give it a more sculptural, statement-making quality.

The silver finish reflects light beautifully and works naturally with marble, glass, mirrored surfaces, black, white and cool grey tones. Sloane Silver complements modern classic, contemporary, glamorous, New York-inspired and Art Deco interiors.

Tall silver decorative lantern for the living room

A tall silver decorative lantern can introduce height and a softer layer of ambient lighting to the living room. Positioned beside a fireplace, near the end of a sofa or alongside a large sideboard, Sloane Silver creates a refined focal point without occupying a substantial area of floor space.

When used with a candle, light passes through the glass panels and reflects against the polished metal frame, creating a warm and atmospheric glow. Even without a candle, the lantern remains a distinctive decorative feature and can be displayed throughout the year.

A large ivory, white or pale beige pillar candle will create the most balanced arrangement. A neutral candle colour allows the polished silver frame and architectural form to remain the primary focus.

Glass and stainless steel lantern

The construction combines clear glass panels with stainless steel. The transparent surfaces give the lantern visual lightness, while the metal frame defines its silhouette and emphasises the clean geometric lines.

The polished silver finish creates a cool metallic sheen. During the day, it reflects the surrounding interior, while in the evening it enhances the glow of the candle. This allows the appearance of the lantern to change subtly depending on the time of day and the lighting within the room.

Glass and metal pair particularly well with smooth luxury materials, but the lantern can also provide an effective contrast against natural timber, linen, wool and matt stone surfaces.

Floor lantern for an entrance hall or dining room

Sloane Silver works beautifully as a floor lantern for an entrance hall. Placed beside a console table, large mirror or doorway, it creates a considered arrival point and can be appreciated from a distance because of its height.

In a dining room, the lantern can be positioned beside a sideboard or in an otherwise empty corner. Combined with pendant lighting featuring glass or metallic details, it helps create a cohesive and layered lighting scheme.

In a bedroom, the lantern can be displayed beside a chest of drawers or within a quiet corner, where it introduces a gentle glow and a more intimate atmosphere. Its height means it does not require a plinth or additional stand.

How to style the Sloane Silver lantern

In a generous interior, the lantern can be displayed alone or as part of a symmetrical pair. Two lanterns positioned on either side of a fireplace, console table or entrance create a more formal and balanced composition.

For a less symmetrical arrangement, combine it with a large vase, sculpture or decorative bowl in a matt finish. The contrast between polished steel and ceramic, stone or natural timber will add depth to the display.

The lantern is most effective when surrounded by a limited number of accessories. Leaving clear space around it will emphasise its height, slim proportions and refined appearance.

Which interiors suit a silver lantern?

Sloane Silver complements modern classic, contemporary, glamorous, Art Deco, New York-inspired and minimalist interiors. Its clean construction allows it to work in both highly decorative and more restrained settings.

In a pale living room, pair the lantern with marble, cream upholstery and glass. In a darker scheme, display it against charcoal, navy, black or dark timber, where the polished frame will create a stronger contrast.

The model can also be used in refined hotel, restaurant, boutique and office interiors where the decoration needs to be visible without appearing excessively ornate.

How to care for a glass and stainless steel lantern

Clean the glass panels with a soft cloth suitable for glass surfaces. Apply cleaning solution to the cloth rather than spraying it directly onto the lantern, helping to prevent marks along the metal edges.

Wipe the stainless steel frame gently with a dry or slightly damp microfibre cloth, then dry the surface immediately. Avoid abrasive materials and harsh cleaning products, as these may scratch or dull the polished finish.

Allow any spilled wax to cool fully before attempting to remove it. Always place the lantern on a stable, heat-resistant surface and keep burning candles away from flammable materials, children and pets.
