Handcrafted Electric Copper Lanterns for Timeless Indoor & Outdoor Style

While gas lanterns remain the heart of Southern lighting design, electric lanterns offer a clean, energy-efficient option that brings Flambeaux style to even more spaces — without the flame.

Our electric copper lanterns are crafted by hand in Louisiana and built to match the charm of traditional gas lanterns. From patios and porches to entryways, hallways, and commercial interiors, these fixtures offer warmth, ambiance, and elegance — with the convenience of hardwired electric power.
