PHILADELPHIA, PA - The replication and restoration of a large outdoor lantern from the Shrine of the Miraculous Medal has been completed.  

PHILADELPHIA, PA - The replication of a large outdoor lantern from the Shrine of the Miraculous Medal is nearing completion.  It will soon be given a matte-black textured finish and then rewired in accordance with UL standards.

Replication work continued on through the weekend which has successfully yielded the cage of the lantern and all of the iron scrolls which connect the fixture to it's mounting destination, and lantern's cage to the pole.

Replication for a large outdoor lantern and post from the Shrine of the Miraculous Medal in Philadelphia continues as the iron components for the lantern have been forged and the detail has been added by hand to each and every piece, very closely resembling the originals. Each component will then be powder coated in a textured black finish to match the original which has already undergone a full restoration.

The complete restoration of a large outdoor lantern from the Shrine of Miraculous Medal in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is progressing rapidly.

The restoration team at Grand Light has begun the process of fully restoring and replicating a large outdoor lantern and post from the Shrine of the Miraculous Medal in Philadelphia.

Grand Light's restoration team travel to Orford, New Hampshire to install the antique Gothic style chandelier that had spent the past several weeks in the New Haven, Conn. workshop undergoing a complete restoration. 

At Grand Light, our restoration team has been working hard on completing the restoration of this 67" dodecagonal gothic-style antique chandelier for the Orford Congregational Church in New Hampshire. 

In early 2008, the ceiling of the Orford United Congregational Church collapsed, and the chandelier that once hung shattered to the ground.  Entombed in a closed-off section of the bell tower, lay a magnificent 67" dodecagonal gothic-style chandelier.  The original gas mirrored reflector chandelier was made circa 1850-1870, and led the restoration search committee chairman Carl Schmidt and Reverend Wilson to Grand Light's restoration team.
