A Master-Light Carpenter MFG. Co. brand silver steel metal electric hand lantern. The lantern has a rounded horizontal squared rectangular shape. On the front of the lantern is a large round circular electric light with a thick black rubber outer rim, a round protective glass lens, a round shiny silver reflector, and a large glass light bulb. Around the bottom of the black rubber rim is a manufacturer mark that reads "MASTERS-LIGHT-MAKERS / PATENTS AND RIGHTS". Above the light is a small and round silver steel metal power switch. To the left of the power switch is a round oval-shaped dark red/brown colored silver metal manufacturer plate with printed silver lettering that reads "PATS 1170012 - 1239835 - 1544191 - 1592178 / 2025064 - 2122008 / OTHERS PENDING / MASTER-LIGHT / CARPENTER MFG.

On both the left and right sides of the lantern are silver steel metal latches to secure the removable lid. On the back of the lantern is a rounded rectangular clip (?) to secure a strap. Inside the lantern are the electrical wires and the battery compartment (battery has been removed). The bottom of the lid has a black cushioning material around it to cushion it against the top of the lantern.
