Traditional Outdoor Light Krumbach, Handcrafted in Germany from Brass or Copper
by
Munich Lanterns
Description
The original Bavarian garden and pathway light from Munich is handcrafted in brass or copper, based on historic originals. Its distinctive truncated pyramid roof with a stylized chimney is a defining feature of this lantern.
Over time, the unvarnished or untreated versions of this outdoor light develop an authentic and unique patina, enhancing the lamp’s antique character.
Münchener Laternen (Munich Lanterns) are genuine masterpieces of German lantern manufacturing. The history of this manufactory goes back 125 years. This rich tradition manifests itself in first-class, handcrafted lights distinguished by their technical finesses. Both consistent innovation and thorough final inspection makes each of these lights an elegant piece of lasting value for tastefully furnished houses and manors.

If desired this lantern is also available in white, black, in any other RAL color as well as nickel-plated or chrome-plated.

- all models that are soley available made of brass can be copper-plated on request for a surcharge. The same applies for chromed or nickel-plated models or lights varnished in a RAL color (please contact us).
When installed outdoors, both materials naturally develop a protective patina over time. As they are exposed to the elements, their surfaces gradually weather and their colours become increasingly similar. As the patina matures, the copper and brass components become almost indistinguishable.

About the manufacturer
* Please note: Since the manufacturer will be closed for two weeks in August and September, there may be a delay in the production and/or shipment of your order. Thank you.
Münchener Laternen (Munich Lanterns) are genuine masterpieces of German lantern manufacturing. The small family-owned company began in 1883 by producing handcrafted utility items from brass and copper, and soon became a supplier to the Royal Bavarian Court. To this day, its classic-modern and historic outdoor lights are handcrafted by master artisans in the family-owned workshops in the Bavarian capital.
Alongside perfectly proportioned wall lanterns in an understated southern German style, the manufactory creates historic faceted-glass lanterns in the Baroque style of the Alpine foothills, as well as handcrafted designs inspired by Romanesque old-town lanterns. These designs reflect the influence of French style on the Kingdom of Bavaria since the era of Napoleon Bonaparte.
All Munich outdoor lights are individually handcrafted and finished with authentic patina surfaces, making them ideal for long-term use at entrances, on façades, or in gardens.
The Bavarian manufacturer also offers a beautiful selection of exclusive brass interior lighting:
