About

For over four decades, we’ve been crafting exceptional lighting fixtures that illuminate the finest properties across the Carolinas and beyond.

Our Story

Carolina Gas Lanterns was founded in 1985 by master craftsman Robert Henderson, who recognized a growing demand for authentic, handcrafted gas lanterns that could withstand the test of time while enhancing the architectural beauty of properties throughout the region.

What began as a small workshop in Charleston has grown into a premier manufacturer of gas and electric lanterns, serving residential homeowners, restaurants, hotels, and commercial properties across the United States.

Today, we continue to honor our founder’s commitment to exceptional craftsmanship, using time-tested techniques combined with modern innovations to create lighting fixtures that are as durable as they are beautiful.

Every lantern that leaves our facility is a testament to our dedication to quality, attention to detail, and the timeless elegance that has made Carolina Gas Lanterns a trusted name for over 40 years.
