The Mourning Lantern Table Lamp draws from the quiet symbolism of Victorian mourning traditions, where light was often used as a sign of remembrance, devotion and the enduring presence of love. Designed as a hand holding an old Victorian-style torch, this piece carries the feeling of a flame kept for someone dearly remembered. In Victorian symbolism, an upright torch was often associated with life, memory and the soul’s continued light - a contrast to the extinguished or downturned torch, which represented death or life cut short. Finished in black with a champagne gold detail, The Mourning Lantern brings a soft, ceremonial glow to the home. It is both a lamp and an object of meaning; a piece made for sideboards, console tables, mantelpieces and shadowed corners that deserve to be lit with a little reverence. Part of The Mourning Room Collection, this design honours the Victorian language of love, loss and remembrance through a piece that feels both ornamental and deeply symbolic. Materials: Resin and metal. Height inc lampshade: 55cm Base diameter: 12cm Height of lamp: 46cm
