Chain Lantern

A small hanging light used primarily in homes and Castles:they are placed like Chandeliers but take up much less space, which makes them ideal for small rooms or passages. It cannot be crafted, and can only be found in Dungeons. Since many of them may appear near the entrance or above ground level, it is possible to obtain them without having to kill Skeletron to gain access to the Dungeon.

In spite of giving off as much light as a Torch, a room with only Chain Lanterns as light will not be suitable for a NPC to inhabit.
