Also known as: ランタン, 提灯
A portable light source, designed to be carried or hung up, typically with an enclosure to protect it from the wind when used Outdoors.
Traditional lanterns use a Candle or a wick dipped in oil, while modern lanterns use battery-powered lights.
For fixed Outdoors lighting, use Stone Lantern, Wooden Lantern, or Lamppost accordingly. Despite the name, the former two do not fall under this tag.
