Antique Brass
Frosted Glass Hexagonal Lantern by GEC – Art Nouveau Cassell Model
A refined medium-sized pendant lantern by G.E.C (General Electric Co. Ltd), this elegant design was first introduced in the early 1920s and appears in their 1926 lighting catalogue under the model name Cassell (Code F1128).
With a hexagonal form and understated Art Nouveau styling, this brass and frosted glass fitting offers a timeless lighting solution with historic charm.
Crafted in the UK, the frame is made from brass with a warm antique factory-applied finish. Each frosted glass panel features an inset oval brass motif, diffusing light beautifully to create a soft, ambient glow.
The simplicity of the design is elevated by its quality of materials and subtle decorative details. A superb hallway, porch, or stairwell feature, especially in period homes or tasteful renovations where subtle vintage lighting is key.
The artist’s figure in the images is 6ft 1" to give a true representation of scale.

WHY IS VINTAGE HOLOPHANE SO POPULAR IN INTERIOR DESIGN
In addition to its practical qualities, vintage Holophane glass is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of vintage and industrial design. The prismatic texture of the glass creates a unique visual effect that is both beautiful and functional, making it a popular choice for use in home decor and lighting fixtures. The vintage Holophane glass is often paired with high-quality metal fixtures, such as brass or cast iron, to create a look that is both elegant and industrial in style.
