The Waxed Exposed Copper Lantern is a decorative light source representing the preserved second oxidation stage of the Copper Lantern. It features a slightly faded copper tone with light green tarnishing while still emitting a bright green flame with a light level of 15. As a waxed variant, the Waxed Exposed Copper Lantern does not oxidize further, maintaining its gently weathered appearance permanently.

The Waxed Exposed Copper Lantern is obtained by applying Honeycomb to an Exposed Copper Lantern. It can be placed on top of blocks or hung beneath them and connects seamlessly to Copper Chains for aesthetic lighting setups. The block is waterloggable, non-flammable, and drops itself when mined or when its supporting block is removed. With a hardness and blast resistance of 3.5, the Waxed Exposed Copper Lantern combines durability with a softly aged copper finish, offering builders a timeless mid-weathered look that stays consistent over time.
