These delightful little Minikin lantern candle holders are adorned with designs that speak to the heart. Each featuring intricate artwork that comes to life when the candle within flickers and glows. These gorgeous porcelain tea light lanterns add a soft glow and artistic decoration to any room, whether used as centrepiece table lanterns or as a mantle display. Perfectly designed lanterns for candles that look as stunning in daylight as they do with a candlelit evening glow.

Our Minikin range features beautifully crafted candle lanterns and tea light lanterns made from fine porcelain, designed to create a soft, ambient glow in any space. Whether you are styling a living room, setting a dining table, or choosing a thoughtful gift, these decorative lanterns bring warmth, light, and meaning into the home.

Each lantern is designed to look just as striking during the day as it does when lit at night, making it a practical and versatile addition to any room.

Minikin lanterns are made using fine porcelain and sit on a natural wooden base for a clean, modern finish. A tea light candle sits securely within the base, casting a warm glow through the porcelain and highlighting the detail of each design.

These room lanterns work across a range of spaces, including:

Living rooms for soft evening lighting
Bedrooms for a calm, relaxed atmosphere
Dining tables as a centrepiece
Bathrooms for spa-like ambience

Our collection includes both neutral and vibrant styles.

White porcelain lanterns feature Koh Living’s signature wildflower designs, creating subtle light patterns and a softer aesthetic. These are ideal for minimalist or neutral interiors.

Artwork lanterns showcase bold designs created in collaboration with Indigenous Australian artists. These pieces introduce colour and detail during the day, then transform into a warm, glowing feature at night.

Each lantern is designed to be both functional and meaningful, making it a reliable choice for gifting or home styling.

What Is A Minikin Lantern?

Our Minikin lanterns are a gorgeous porcelain candle holder sitting on a wood base. The wooden base holds the tea light candle and illuminates the design when the tea light candle is lit. You can use scented tea light candles, or electric tea light candles (led tea light candle) in the Minikin lantern.

We have an amazing range of Australian scented tea light candles that are made locally in Melbourne Australia. The Minikin lantern base has a sunken tea light candle holder cup to ensure your tea light stays in the one position while burning.

What Makes Minikin Lanterns Different?

Minikin lanterns are designed to combine function with design.

Unlike standard glass candle holders or basic tea light holders, these decorative candle lanterns:

Create a softer, more diffused light
Feature detailed artwork and textures
Work as both lighting and décor
Are designed for everyday use, not just occasions

They are also widely used as gift-ready candle lanterns, suitable for birthdays, Mother’s Day, and housewarming gifts.

Are Candle Lanterns Safe?

Yes, our candle lanterns are as safe as they are stunning. As with any indoor or outdoor candle holder you should always place your decorative votive lantern away from flammable items and in an open area. We recommend following the burn time information for your candle of choice, and never forget about your candle display and leave it unattended.

Our Minikin Lanterns are crafted with porcelain that is designed to house a regular size tealight candle safely. Always use quality tealight candles, and if in doubt, blow it out and use an LED or battery operated candle instead.
