Can lanterns be used outdoors?
1 Answer
Whether or not lanterns can be used outdoors depends on the piece. Ones crafted out of waterproof and rust-proof materials often work indoors and outdoors. Many are only suitable for display in covered outdoor or indoor areas. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of vintage and antique lanterns.
