A parade lantern (also called a "torch") made of tin-plated sheet iron. Lantern is attached to a pivoting gimbal mounted to a socket for attachment to a pole; it retains a part of an original wick protruding from a narrow neck. Socket bears a stamp reading: "Pat. Apl'd Fo[r]". Lantern is attached to a long wooden handle, which is most likely a replacement made in the 20th century.
