lantern
Camper's night light
A lantern is a portable light source, traditionally consisting of a lamp or candle enclosed in a protective case with transparent panels.
The enclosure shields the flame from wind while allowing light to pass through.
Lanterns have largely been replaced by electric flashlights for practical use, but they persist in decorative contexts, camping equipment, and cultural celebrations like Chinese lantern festivals.
Jack-o'-lanterns are hollowed pumpkins carved with faces and lit from within, displayed at Halloween.
