Magnolia Lantern: a 66-inch concrete column with a steel lantern head of branch cutouts
The American Fyre Designs Magnolia Lantern is a tall fire column, 16 inches square and 66 inches tall. Its solid concrete pedestal is topped by a square stainless steel lantern head with branch-pattern cutouts that let the flame glow through and cast shadows at night. Made from concrete reinforced with glass fibers, it looks like stone at a fraction of the weight and comes in seven colors.
Order it for natural gas or propane. Turn the knob and press the igniter to light it, or add the Fyrestarter Bluetooth control and start it from your phone. The lantern burner, pan, fittings, and lava granules are included, and you pick the fire glass color on the page. A canvas cover and a side table that hides a propane tank are optional. Prefer an open flame in a vase? See the Eclipse fire urn. The Magnolia Lantern ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What makes the Magnolia a lantern rather than a fire pit?
The flame lives up high, glowing through a brushed stainless steel topper at the crown of a 66-inch column – the fire behaves like architectural lighting rather than an open bowl of flame. It is the only lantern-form fire feature in our AFD lineup, designed to cast a warm, inviting glow from dusk till night.
What does the tree-patterned topper do?
The stainless steel lantern topper features an artful tree pattern, so the flame’s glow picks out the design after dark, throwing warm light and pattern instead of a plain open fire. By day the brushed metal reads as modern sculpture atop the concrete column; by night it becomes the lantern’s shade.
How narrow is the Magnolia’s base?
Just 16 by 16 inches – a slim square that lets the 66-inch column stand in places most fire features cannot: beside a front door, along a courtyard wall, at the corner of a pool deck. Height does the visual work while the footprint stays out of the way of foot traffic entirely.
Does the Magnolia offer smartphone control?
Yes, optionally. Upgrade to the Bluetooth-enabled FyreStarter electronic ignition and you get push-button light-ups and smartphone control; otherwise the standard manual flame sensing system keeps operation simple and reliable. For a piece often stationed at an entryway, having the lantern already glowing when guests arrive is a genuine luxury.
Which fuel options does the Magnolia offer?
Natural gas or propane, chosen at purchase. The propane version includes internal storage for a 5-gallon tank – the tank itself is not included – keeping the setup tidy inside the slim column, a trait it shares with our other propane fire features. The natural gas model connects to a plumbed line for permanent installation.
Where do people place a fire lantern?
Entryways, courtyards, pool decks, and patios – anywhere a point of glowing light improves the scene. The Magnolia works like an oversized garden lantern: station it where you would want a lamp after dark, and it delivers flame instead of a bulb, with GFRC construction handcrafted in the USA to live outdoors permanently.
Is a fire lantern bright enough to light a path?
Think ambiance, not task lighting. The Magnolia casts a warm, inviting glow from dusk till night – enough to mark an entrance, silhouette a courtyard, or give a pool deck its evening mood – but it is a fire feature, not a floodlight. Pair it with conventional path lighting and let the lantern supply the atmosphere.
