Fixed globe lanterns are the earliest ‘globe lanterns’, (lanterns with a circular globe in it). Fixed globe lanterns often predate the ability to remove them, and as such most of the globes in fixed globe lanterns I’ve seen are plastered to the metal of the lantern. The plaster is often the structural support of these lanterns, so they’re quite fragile.
Other lanterns include oddball items I just can’t quite fit elsewhere. That’s certainly not to discount their importance or enjoyment in my collection, but just working with the space and layout of my website.
