I had this as a kid. The lantern is ~6" tall (up to the point of the ears) x ~4" in diameter. It has its handle. It looks pretty nice & no candle was lit inside. There is some paint loss on the underside. It has a little candle holder that screws into the bottom of the lantern. It has a couple little dents on the bottom if you look closely. There's a little paint loss here & there. This is really neat when lit up! You could use battery operated votives or tealight candles. I'm downsizing. Please see photos & ask any questions. Thanks for looking & Happy Halloween
