    You did a great job restoring your lantern 🏮. You were able to see the “diamond in the rough” make it sparkle! Outstanding job sir!! The Old Army Scout…

      Thank you! This particular lantern is probably the most satisfying project I've taken on since I began collecting. Take care and God bless!

      Paint won't hold up on the hat to much heat needs to be re coted in porcelain like the factory used

    Did you repaint the lid?

      The ventilators are coated with porcelain. Paint would just burn off once you light the lantern
