Decorative lanterns can be hung or used freestanding. Common options include shepherd’s hooks, hanger rings, reinforced top rings, and detachable handles so lanterns can be suspended, placed on tabletops, or set on the ground.
Package counts vary by product. Some outdoor sets include six solar lanterns plus six shepherds hooks, while other decorative offerings are sold as two-piece sets or as single lanterns.
Common materials include metal (examples include brass and iron), fabric, and plastic. Material choice affects weight, durability, and style.
Common features include pre-lit LED string lights, flameless LED pillar candles (often with 6-hour auto timers), and solar lanterns that can run up to about 10 hours after a full charge.
Setup ranges from no assembly to quick, tool-free assembly: some lanterns hang ready out of the box, others require attaching a handle or plugging in, and some solar sets simply assemble with shepherds hooks or fold flat for storage.
