@gidgetgh, How pretty! I can't really advise because I just go by what looks right to me around here. I'm sure experts would laugh and laugh. 
What I would probably do in your case is measure the height of the fireplace tools, then decide if I want the lantern to be shorter, the same as, or taller than the tools. Mine are 28" so even the largest TSV would be shorter than my fireplace tools. I would probably measure the height of the iron too, if it is going to be displayed along with the lantern, because I'm weird that way! Maybe if you want the stair step look, choose a height somewhere nicely between the two? Just an idea.
FYI--The TSV lanterns' measurements are including the metal ring, so you would probably need to deduct and inch or two from the stated measurement to get a more accurate picture of their height.

Hysterical...!!! And I do feel the love...I hope I am still hugging you after tomorrow!
@BornToShop I would be VERY surprised if you were not 120% pleased that you got both of them. I don't know if you already have a Luminara lantern or not...do you have the Churchill lantern? If not, it's top notch quality and I believe that these will be too
I have the churchill in the black & thanks to SHOPR who recently discovered it in cream at BBB, I have that one too. I didn't like the price but used a coupon which helped. The cream is best for me since I will use them in my coastal decor & my womancave. I say the 24" is too much lantern, but knowing me, I will rationalize tomorrow on why I think I need it. Bring on the group hug, lol!
Are you sure 24" is too much lantern for you, @BornToShop? LOL
This Gray Fleur-de-lis Lantern holds two candles so you can double the romantic light in any room. You'll love the rustic wood finish and charcoal gray lid.
- Lantern measures 14.5L x 10.5W x 23.5H in.
- Crafted of wood and metal

What a beautiful fireplace! I would get the 19 & 24" ones as the size of your fireplace would need a larger statement IMO. How much fun you must have decorating l!
@gidgetgh ITA with BornToShop...19" AND 24" if you want them down by the floor/on the stone!!! What a wonderful statement that would make!!! To me, the 16" is more for being a table top, mantal top, etc.
If you still want the 2 smaller sizes, I would put them on the mantel next to each other .

My first advice would be to get rid of that fireplace. I think it needs a new home, and I've got just the place for it. I'd be happy to help out a fellow home decor lover and take it off your hands for you!
Seriously, it is stunning!
I'd probably go with the two smaller lanterns, grouped together if there is room. If one it must be, try to make it the right size to not look odd with the tools, like too big and over shadowing their size.

I asked Susan Matthews on her FB page and she said the measurements are for the lantern body only and does not include the hook.
