This like most of the other lanterns I have listed, has been professionally restored. They have been either brought back to their original non-painted surface or as in the case of this lamp it was cleaned striped and painted to match its original color. After extensive research the only non-original aspect to these lamps are the mounting holes drilled in the steel plate to accommodate screw heads. The collector I purchased these from had them mounted as a pair, one on each side of the entrance door to his great room. I am selling 2 of these separately but at the same time. The buyer who wins both of these will be charged shipping costs for only 1 lamp. 5 lbs plus packaging. I will pay for the shipping weight of the second lamp. Both must be sent to the same address I dismantle and inspect every lantern I sell to guarantee that all parts are original and in working order. Please read more
