Leather and Wood Lantern - Early Medieval Period

This charming lantern, made from rawhide and wood, dates back to the early medieval period. There are only a few known examples that feature rawhide, making this piece quite unique and popular among history lovers.

You’ll often see these lanterns in historical reenactments and camps, where they provide a warm glow to brighten up dark evenings. It has a sisal rope handle that can be easily swapped out if needed. The light sits safely in a metal bowl inside, ensuring it stays steady.

This lantern is not just practical but can be used at home as well. We have one in our window with modern light bulb inside, casting cozy glow in the evenings.
