Lantern (Skyrim)

A lantern is a Miscellaneous Item mostly used for decoration in Skyrim.

Uses
In the normal world, a player may see lanterns being used as lighting. The player may not interact with these lanterns; however, non-lit lanterns are scattered around and may be sold to a general store or used as a decoration in the player's house.

Locations
Lanterns are found near NPC's or where NPC's used to be. Such locations include houses, stores, towns and cities, and even bandit camps. One possible place to encounter a lantern is in Helgen Keep.
