CUSTOM LIGHTING REDEFINED
The Waldorf Lantern Collection
Timeless charm meets architectural precision in the Waldorf Lantern, a signature piece designed to illuminate your home with a sense of historic grandeur. Drawing inspiration from classic European estate lighting, this lantern features a refined silhouette that balances rugged durability with elegant detailing.
Design & Craftsmanship
The Waldorf is defined by its striking hipped roofline and meticulous rivet detailing along the crown, evoking the artisanal feel of traditional metalwork. Available in both a grand wall-mounted sconce and a versatile chain-hung pendant, the Waldorf is crafted from premium metals designed to age gracefully.
-
Window-Pane Framing: The delicate horizontal and vertical mullions create a sophisticated "window-box" effect, beautifully framing the internal light source.
-
Artisanal Finishes: Choose from a rich, weathered bronze with subtle verdigris undertones for a vintage look, or a burnished gold that adds a warm, luxe glow to any entryway or dining space.
-
Clear Glass Panels: Full-length clear glass provides unobstructed light output, allowing the flicker of the bulbs to take center stage.
Versatile Mounting Options
-
The Waldorf Pendant: Suspended by a heavy-duty decorative chain, this version is an ideal choice for high-ceilinged foyers, covered porches, or positioned in pairs over a large kitchen island.
-
The Waldorf Wall Sconce: Featuring a robust shepherd’s crook mounting bracket with scrolled accents, this version creates a stately presence for your home’s exterior or a dramatic hallway statement.

Why Choose a St. James Lantern?
-
Individually Hand-Crafted to meet your needs:
-
You get exactly what you want for your indoor and outdoor lighting needs because YOU design your light from 6 beautiful finishes, 4 glass options, 3-5 sizes depending upon the style & 5 electric options.
-
Hand-Crafted Quality second to none:
St. James Lights are called “lifetime fixtures” because when you purchase a St. James Lantern or Chandelier, you are making an investment that will last a lifetime and will be the last light fixtures you will ever need to buy. Each light is individually hand-crafted and inspected to ensure that you receive the highest quality lantern or chandelier available anywhere in the world.
-
Elegant Looks and Beauty:
Designed and engineered to set the standard for elegant lighting, St. James Lights increase in beauty as the copper ages.
-
Durability and Longevity:
St. James Lighting are made from the best copper mined in the U.S., which has a projected life of 300 years. Less expensive zinc or aluminum metals are not used. Expensive copper brazing rods are used versus cheaper soldering methods and an expensive riveting machine is used versus cheaper and faster pop rivet methods used by many.
-
Made in America:
We are proud to be American made in Columbia, Mississippi and 100% of every part is made in the USA. No parts or assembly come from China, like many do.
