Is this or can this lantern be used as an indoor light? and any chance to also order the glass frosted instead of clear?

Yes, the lantern can be wall mounted indoors. This fixture is only available with clear seeded glass.

Frosted glass is not a purchase option. BUT, mine came with frosted glass, and I cannot get NUVU to fix the issue. I will trade you.

I would say yes IF it is a post lantern light, maybe for a very old lantern type with large glass flat sides but no for the enclosed with bulb base at the top type. It adds about 2 inches to the bulb height, it base in in the black part, if it is frosted the eye is in the center and unless it get full sun it will not work.

Also. The glass is 8" tall. You could get away with a 6" tall electric pillar but I think 5" or even a little shorter would put the light at a better height within the glass.

This is a great lantern but I believe I would buy the larger one for power outages. It is really nice. Happy New Year.

Hello Scott,I wanted to double check before replying. Maximum wattage is 40 per bulb, hence a total of 120 wattage per lantern. Also, we live in a very rural area and it's very dark so we purchased two of these lanterns, one regular and one planter style. It does brighten the area up considerably and they are set on dawn to dusk mode so for the past year we have not had to replace them yet; I personally wouldn't mind things a bit brighter and may look into the newer 40 watt bulbs that actually give off more light or lumens when we replace the bulbs. The lantern itself is a quality product - would recommend. Hope this was helpful. Hello Scott,I wanted to double check before replying.

Yes you can, as long as the LED lights have the standard twist on . For costmetic reason, try to get a light that can recess inside the glass vases. It will look much better. My light bulbs is stick out pass the glass vase it did not look very good.

no, mine is glass and the brown part is metal.the first one came with a cracked glass (during shipment) and the company sent another one with many apologies. very good company.Perhaps they have made the recent lanterns with plastic????call the company and ask them.

Hi, The beautiful Dragonfly lamp works with 2 bulbs x 60 watts. Certainly the lamp is made in real glass, we do not sell plastic. Thank you

I like the lantern. Wish it was a little brighter. Both top and bottom light up more soft bluish light. I cranked it when I first got it to charge it and it was dark outside. But its been charged by the sun everyday and comes on every night. Never had any trouble with it it. I would recommend this more for decoration than to light your path.

Hello,now we only have pink lanterns in our warehouse. I am afraid purple one is out of stock.Is that ok? Pls free to let me know. Thank you so much.

Yes, this should work for an indoor fixture. I've used it in a kitchen ceiling can, over a counter, and it's practically indistinguishable from the R20 halogen it replaced, except that it doesn't dim quite as low. Make sure it's the color you want -- this one is warm white, 2700K.

It is actually clear glass but looks absolutely beautiful when lit. It is also larger than most round or vanity lights. I use it in a hallway light that is all glass & open at the bottom so size is fine.

I use a LED bulb for more brightness and energy saver. The material of the lantern is resin (hard plastic), however, it is very sturdy. After our strong winter storms, I did not experience any problems with it. I purchased it over a year ago and love the way it looks in my front yard. I highly recommend it.

I believe for your application would be too bright if lantern was say hanging at eye level if you had it lower than your eyes and made a thin "shade" on 1/2 of the lantern ( I used the back of a note pad ) so light would only come out of the unshielded side instead of 360' might work and say on a bench or table behind you - once your eyes get use to the red it becomes fairly bright for for a single led

I think that the light would work in a paper lantern since the bulbs don't get too hot You're probably going to put it right up the middle through the hole at the bottom,so that should be far enough away from the paper sides of the lantern.

Hi Lacey, The glass is not green. Its a pretty beigeish amber with cream colored swirls going through it. I bought one for my night table in the bedroom, and I liked it so much I bought another for the other night table. These are really nice looking lamps. And when their turned on they are really pretty. Hope this helps you. :)

Yes, I use compact fluorescents in mine. The glass is frosted. Because the shade is a camel color, the fluorescents don't throw off the stark white light that they normally do. It gives off a nice warm light even using the CFLs. Hope this helps!
