Golden lantern

i'm new to the minecraft lifestyle and am playing it for the first time, and i love the building and decorating aspect of it. one thing i love is lanters and while i love the standard one and the copper ones (all variants), i was thinking, why not have a golden one using redstone torches surrounded by gold nuggets in a crafting bench, similar to the others. or even using them with soul torches for better nether exploration in caves. it could be used then as both decoration and a way to keep piglings happy.
