Welcome to our online showroom of lanterns!
Here you will find a wide variety of handcrafted lighting including wall lanterns, post lanterns, hanging lanterns, sconces, landscape lights, chandeliers , nautical lanterns, oil lamps, and landscape lighting.
Most of our lighting is handcrafted in solid brass or solid copper with a choice of finishes for all lanterns – raw brass, antique brass, dark antique brass, dark brass, raw copper, antique copper, and verdigris. All finishes will naturally patina over time. We do not recommend painting fixtures. We also have many glass options which include clear glass, optic glass, clear seedy glass, and seedy marine glass.
We have added a line of lighting (Made in Vermont) that is available in Coastal Outdoor Finishes. Each of these finishes has been extensively tested in a salt spray chamber, and these finishes may be used on a home’s exterior within 20 miles of the coast.
Cape Cod Lanterns™, also known as S. Wilder & Co., is located in Orleans, Massachusetts on Cape Cod, and is one of the oldest continuously operating businesses in the Commonwealth. S. Wilder & Co. has been in business since 1836, and reproduces authentic lantern designs. Our lanterns are made by hand just as the original lighting was, and may be customized to suit individual tastes or needs.

Morning from the West Coast; Craig & Debbie,
I just wanted to send you a couple photos of your lantern that I got put up on our north porch, yesterday. All went well with shipping and
installation and we, now, are the proud owners of one of your wonderful lights.
We look forward to our trip to the Cape next year as I am sure that we’ll be stopping by once again.
Thanks, also, for your recommendation and directions to the Chatham Sign Co. We received our new house no. sign last week and I plan to
install that during the upcoming weekend.
Thanks, again, and please keep up the great work!
Very Sincerely,
