A Wrought Iron Lantern From The Late 19th Century By Valerian Gillar

A magnificent late 19th-century wrought-iron lantern by Valerian Gillar, Vienna, fitted with beveled glass panels
This exceptional lantern demonstrates the refined craftsmanship for which the Viennese master Valerian Gillar was renowned. Richly decorated in ornate Rococo Revival style, it features exuberant hand-forged scrollwork, acanthus leaf motifs, and delicately pierced openwork details. The six-sided frame is fitted with beautifully beveled glass panels that allow the light to reveal the depth and intricacy of the ornamental ironwork.

A striking and highly decorative piece, exemplary of late 19th-century Viennese metal artistry — both elegant and imposing — ideal as a statement feature in a grand entrance hall, gallery, or period interior.

Label: V. Gillar, Wien, Siebenbrunnengasse 9
