ABSTRACT:
A candle lantern equally suitable for indoor and outdoor use, and which further doubles as a decorative candle holder, comprising a body made from a tube of translucent material, for example glass or plastic, and two interchangeable candle-holding cups/heat shields mounted in the upper and lower ends of the tube, respectively, by set screws extending through holes in the tube. A base comprising a set of wire legs is preferably provided at the lower end of the tube, secured to the tube by the lower set of set screws, while a retractable bail handle and optional rain shield are provided in the upper end of the tube and secured to the upper set screw structure. In a preferred form the candle-holding cups include both blind apertures for receiving the set screws against the outer surface of the cup, and a set of holes for allowing the set screws through the cup to engage undersized candles.
