About Waxed Exposed Copper Lantern

The Waxed Exposed Copper Lantern is a copper lantern that has reached the exposed oxidation stage and been locked with wax. The wax stops the metal from weathering further, so the block keeps its faded blue-green look instead of slowly turning fully green.

It works as a decorative light source and gives off a steady glow. This makes it useful for builds where you want weathered copper colour without losing the lantern’s function or appearance over time.

Key facts:

Waxing locks the exposed oxidation stage permanently.
It will not continue to oxidise.
It works as a solid light source for indoor or outdoor builds.

How to get Waxed Exposed Copper Lantern

You get a Waxed Exposed Copper Lantern by applying honeycomb to an Exposed Copper Lantern. You can use the honeycomb directly on the placed block, or combine them in a crafting grid. The lantern must already be in its exposed stage before you wax it.
