This Samll Flame Effect Style Lantern is perfect for Christmas table centerpieces, outdoor/indoor table centerpieces, entry decorations, fireplace mantle decor, deck, and patio decor, or above your kitchen cabinets decor. The battery-operated lantern features a realistic flickering flame with orange lights that rise from the wood to give the impressions of burning ember escaping -To add to the illusion, an orange-red light shines out between some of the logs through the glass viewing window on the front. Hang it using the ring on top, which adds to the lantern look, or stand it on a flat surface. It includes an ON/OFF switch and requires 3 AA batteries (not included).
