To prepare your horn lantern for use and ensure safe and authentic lighting, please observe the following points: - Preparation: Ensure the lantern is stable or securely hung. As it is a hand-forged product, the surface should be cleaned of any residue before first use.
- Safe light sources: Use pillar candles or tea lights that fit firmly in the provided holder. Maintain sufficient distance from the horn material to prevent heat damage.
- Authenticity: For a historically accurate look in a medieval camp, real wax candles (e.g., beeswax) are ideal, as they produce a warm, flickering light.
- Safety note: Never leave the lantern unattended while it is in use with an open flame and keep flammable materials away. Alternatively, warm white LED tea lights can be used for safer handling.
