About us

silla was born out of a passion for beautiful objects: special pieces with aesthetic and historical significance. In 2009, after years of collecting, Andrew Silla and his wife Grace began to work privately with clients from their residence in Southern Maryland. Quickly outgrowing the space, the business was moved from Maryland to Pennsylvania in 2012 and after several warehouse location changes it was firmly settled in the present brick-and-mortar location in downtown Shippensburg.

The 9000 square foot brick-and-mortar gallery is home to a large collection of works of art and estate jewelry. We specialize in sculpture circa 1860 through 1930 with a particular emphasis on the Animaliers and as such the gallery always has a very large collection of exceptional European and American sculpture available on display.

PAIR OF ANTIQUE BRASS SHIP'S LANTERNS IN RED & GREEN FRESNEL LENS
England, circa 1900
Item # 301PAY23Z 

A wonderful aged pair of brass ship's lanterns with original red and green fresnel lenses from the turn of the century, each features a beautifully patinated body with extensive discoloration and oxidization from years on the oceans. They have never been electrified or modified, but we can certainly electrify them for modern use upon request.


Measurements: 16 3/4" H (20" H with handle up) x 10" D x 10" W

Condition Report:
Tarnished, oxidized and generally discolored surfaces from years of exposure; light dents, dings and abrasions throughout; internal oil lamp components unchecked for completeness and will likely require attention of a specialist to function again.
