Rare Wolf Trap Lantern

France, 20th Century

$175

Originally used by French farmers to lure wolves away from their livestock, these iron lanterns were made to flicker through fog and forest. We found them tucked away in a barn near Avignon, still holding the smell of smoke and old pine. Sylvie keeps one by the bed - not for wolves, but for pacing in the dark like a 19th-century heiress with a secret. Three sizes available, exactly as pictured.
