After placing all the items in the correct order, Sea Lantern will appear on the right side of the screen. Simply hold it and drag it to your inventory to use it.

Another way to get Sea Lantern in Minecraft is by looking for them in underwater structures like ocean monuments and underwater ruins. To start off, prepare some potions like a potion of night vision and water breathing that will aid you in conducting the underwater search. Then, dive deep into the ocean and find an underwater mountain.
