Can this lantern be used outdoors?

Troubleshooting
Lantern wobbles on its stand.
Ensure the lantern is placed on a completely flat and stable surface. Check that the lantern is correctly seated on the stand and that no parts are loose.
Finish appears uneven or scratched.
This is often part of the intentional distressed and patina effect. If significant damage has occurred, contact customer support. For minor marks, gently buff with a soft cloth.
Verdigris patina looks different than expected.
The patina effect is applied to create a vintage look and can vary slightly from piece to piece, making each lantern unique.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The lantern typically comes as a complete unit or requires minimal assembly of the stand and lantern top. Simply place the lantern on a stable, level surface. Ensure the stand is securely seated before placing a candle or decorative items inside.
Compatibility: This lantern is designed for use with pillar candles or LED candles. It is also suitable for displaying small to medium-sized decorative objects, plants, or seasonal arrangements. It is best suited for indoor use in traditionally styled interiors.
Care: To maintain its appearance, dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For the distressed and patina effects, avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. If a candle drips wax, allow it to cool and harden completely before gently scraping it away. Wipe any residue with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately.
