Questions About The Lantern
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
A lantern is a portable lighting device.
- What is a pagoda lantern?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021A pagoda lantern is a type of Japanese lantern that looks like a light basket or a light tower. It is a traditional lantern and is generally made of stone, wood, or metal. This type of lantern was used in Buddhist temples to line and illuminate paths. Shop a range of antique and vintage pagoda lanterns on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Japanese lanterns are often made of paper or silk, with a bamboo wood frame. Traditionally a candle supplied the light, but many of them today are either battery or solar operated. Shop a collection of Japanese lanterns from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2024The difference between a lamp and a lantern is that a floor lamp or a table lamp is a generally stationary fixture, whereas lanterns are portable. Lanterns are typically designed with hooks or hoops on top, to allow them to be carried or hung, and today's lanterns' window panes are usually made of glass or plastic.
It's worth pointing out that exceptions to this “portable versus stationary” rule can be found in lanterns that are intentionally designed as permanent lighting fixtures for a space, whether it's to serve as patio lighting outdoors or to illuminate a living room.
There are many types of lighting to consider for your home, and since the days that saw lanterns powered by whale oil, kerosene and later, coal oil, lighting artisans have worked to refine and perfect these innovative fixtures so that they aren’t only practical but also elegant, sophisticated additions to home decor.
Find antique and vintage lamps and other lighting on 1stDibs. - 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A cherished part of Japanese culture, Japanese lanterns symbolize love, brightness and most important of all - protection from evil.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A pumpkin lantern is called a jack-o'-lantern. The tradition of carving pumpkins and other vegetables and using them to hold candles dates back to the 19th century when the Irish and Scottish began making the decorations around Halloween to ward off evil spirits. Find a range of antique and vintage lanterns on 1stDibs.
- Can lanterns be used outdoors?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether 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.
- How much are old lanterns worth?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Old lanterns are worth $50 to several hundred dollars, on average. The most valuable, which can fetch thousands of dollars, are fixed globe or presentation lanterns.
