Item Description
7” dia. lantern lays flat but expands open to a height of 12”. Interior base has metal holder for a candle while the top edge has a thin wire handle and additional short wire for suspending. Interior has a few dots and marks of candle wax that cause no problems and a very minor 1” long hairline tear around the metal holder’s base in the cardboard lantern bottom that again is very minor and only shows from underside. The only flaw in the accordion-fold paper sides is a small spot of missing red paper .5x.75” from the second fold down from the top. Overall exceptionally clean and quite rare as most were fire damaged and discarded. VF.
