Rustic farmhouse-style electric lantern featuring a dark brown and black rectangular frame with clear window panels and decorative gridwork. The curved metal top has a star-shaped cutout, and a large arched handle allowing the lantern to be carried or displayed. A hinged glass door with latch provides access to the interior. Inside is a candle-style electric socket with a small flame torpedo-shaped bulb. Brown electrical cord includes an inline on/off switch and standard two-prong plug. Tested and illuminates. Primarily made of painted or coated metal with clear panels, likely steel or tin and plexiglass respectively, electrical wiring, candle-style socket sleeve. Bulb NOT included. Dimensions are approximately 9 1/2"h x 4" diameter with a cord length of approximately 66" (5 1/2'). Good pre-owned condition. The lantern is functional and lights when plugged in. There is visible cosmetic wear from use, including scuffs, dust, small areas of finish loss, and a noticeable scraped area on the curved top near the star cutout. Additional finish wear is visible along some edges, hinges, and around the door/frame. The clear panels are intact with no obvious cracks or major chips. Door, latch, handle, cord, inline switch, and plug are present. Could benefit from a thorough cleaning.
