Sizes and quality

The Lantern render is 128 × 128 pixels, the size the game draws the item at in the inventory. It scales up by whole numbers to 1024 px with no interpolation, so the edges stay sharp.

Minecraft lanterns: recipe, light and how to hang them

The lantern is a stronger light than the torch: it gives light level 15, the maximum, against the torch’s 14. It is crafted from eight iron nuggets around a torch. This page gathers the family: the regular lantern, the soul lantern and the copper ones.

It sits on top of almost any block or hangs underneath. Aim at a block’s bottom face and it hangs, and if it hangs from a chain, the chain and lantern join seamlessly, which looks great indoors and along streets.

It melts snow within 2 blocks and ice within 3, like the torch. Any tool breaks it, although a pickaxe is fastest, and it always drops. A piston breaks it if it tries to push it.

It generates as lamp posts over farms and on some buildings in snowy villages, and also in Nether bastions.

For night-time thumbnails, a few hanging lanterns give a warm light that looks far better than a torch stuck to a wall.
