Primitive Candle Lanterns

Our collection of primitive tin and wood candle lanterns includes the classic Paul Revere lantern.

Most people know that during the Revolutionary War, Paul Revere arranged to have a signal lit at the Old North Church. One lantern if the British were coming by land, and two lanterns if they were coming by sea.

We have beautiful Paul Revere lanterns made of punched tin, as well as other lanterns that may hold a taper or pillar candle.
