This is a paper mache/pulp  black cat lantern from early 20th century. The texture is matte and looks more like egg crate material. It measures approximately 5 inches high  and 4 inches from ear tip to ear tip. The tips of the ears have some wear and missing paint. There are a few random faint white spots that may be from residing next to other Halloween decorations including a couple on the nose, behind the left ear, around the top rim, on the left cheek,  none of which is material. Around the rim on the front right side there is a spot about 3/8 inch wide that may be some hardened wax or glue.  The inside of the lantern is clean with no wax or debris.  It has a small cardboard holder in the center where a candle would have been placed and also a spring which is loose. The eyes have a green tint and are actually a paper insert,  and the mouth is painted on the face.  The bottom is intact.  This is an uncommon lantern.
