      I can't speak for the lantern on the left, but the history of the two on the right begins in a Chinese/Taiwanese metal shop in the mid 1980s-1990s. These are nautical reproduction items and you can still purchase them at many nautical gift shops. I purchased identical lamps at a gift shop in Wildwood NJ for my porch.
