FAQs
Can this lantern be left outside permanently?
While suitable for outdoor use, it is best kept in a sheltered area to protect the frame and glass from harsh weather and prolonged moisture exposure.
What size candle should I use?
The lantern accommodates most standard pillar candles. Ensure the candle diameter allows for at least one inch of clearance from the glass panels.
Is the glass removable for cleaning?
The glass panels are integrated into the frame; however, they are accessible from the inside for cleaning with a cloth.
Can I use real wax candles?
Yes, standard wax candles are compatible, but always monitor burning candles and ensure they are on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
Is the lantern heavy?
The lantern is designed to be sturdy but remains lightweight enough to move easily between different areas of the home.
Troubleshooting
Soot buildup on glass panels
Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth to remove soot after the candle has fully cooled.
Candle flame flickering or going out
Ensure the lantern is placed in an area protected from direct drafts or move it to a more sheltered position.
Lantern feels unstable on uneven surfaces
Ensure the base is placed on a level surface; consider using a small felt pad if the surface is slightly uneven.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Capella Lantern is straightforward; simply place your preferred candle on the base, ensuring it is centered for even burning. It is compatible with standard pillar candles or LED flameless candles, the latter of which are recommended for areas where unattended burning is a concern. To care for the lantern, wipe the glass panels regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and a glass cleaner to prevent soot buildup. Dust the white frame with a dry duster to maintain its crisp appearance. Avoid using harsh abrasive chemicals on the finish to prevent scratching.
