When buying a lantern made of metal, especially the future location is to be considered. If the lantern should be used outdoors, it should have as much weight as possible. The ventilation slots must be positioned so that no moisture can penetrate, but the hot air is well dissipated. The stable lantern becomes safer when there is a sufficiently long wick on the floor on which the candle is placed. Alternatively, the lantern should at least have a permanently installed candle holder, so that the candle does not slip when carrying the lantern. The door or lid must be easy to open and close so that the candle can be placed in the lantern and ignited or extinguished. The glass panes need to be cleaned more often because soot is deposited on the inside. Luminaires with a filigree metal pattern can not be cleaned as easily as a model whose side walls consist of larger glass surfaces.
