Most lanterns in this category do not include candles. This allows buyers the flexibility to select their own preferred candle sizes, styles, and scents. Notably, the descriptions of the Lantern Whitewash S/2 and Lantern Temple specifically mention that candles are not included. The absence of candles provides customers with the opportunity to choose candles that best match their desired aesthetic or functional use, such as battery-operated, scented, or coloured candles. Additionally, choosing your own candles ensures they fit your specific lighting and decorative needs, whether it be for a cosy evening indoors or a lively outdoor gathering.
